RE: (erielack) Three strikes and I'm out

The World Trade Center station is back in operation, and has been for about
2 years.  It is a testament to the hard work and dedication of everyone
involved in the massive project of cleaning out the Pit, repairing the
tunnels and building the new entrances and platforms- in the middle of an
active construction site, no less.

One historically unfortunate side effect of all this is that as far as I
have heard, all the old Hudson Terminal underground infrastructure is
totally gone (though this site
http://www.columbia.edu/~brennan/abandoned/hudterm.html claims otherwise),
where in WTC days, some remained and was used for storage.

In concept, the transportation center part of the Hudson Terminal will
probably rise again in the next few years as the PATH is joined with the
subway lines in the World Trade Center-Broadway-Fulton area.

2. The H&M (Hudson tubes). These took u to most of the high points & all the
way uptown to 33rd St. Many of the stops could be at an interchange with
subways for further uptown. There was also a convenient terminal on the H&M
downtown on what became the site of the twin towers (before our islamic
friends blew them up in an effort to convince us of the correctness of their
worldview).
