Outside, twin reflecting pools sit within the footprints of the original Twin Towers, surrounded by bronze panels inscribed with victims' names.

Expert notes
- Visit this place on a clear day; the clouds will interfere with the views of the city. Wear dark-colored clothing for your visit; the pictures don't come good with light colors due to the reflective glass of the building. Make sure to check out the new transportation concourse when existing downstairs.
