Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava unveiled his blueprint for the World Trade Center site’s new commuter terminal, a pavilion mirroring the outstretched wings of a bird

He designed the New York City station as an open-air gateway, where light will fall 60 feet through ribbed, transparent canopies. The $2-billion center will also feature a movable dome that will mechanically open to the sky each year on Sept. 11, in a memorial to the victims of the 2001 terrorist attack.
