Known as the “Way of Light,” the sun’s golden rays precisely align with the building’s retractable skylight to form a dappled path of light on the floor along the axis of the structure that appears to be two towers standing slide by side.

The path of brightness formed by the sun appears in line with an American flag hanging overhead.
The time, 10:28 a.m., marked the fateful moment the North Twin Tower collapsed, exactly 24 years ago.

The original design for the building included a roof that could open completely in the shape of a bird’s wings. But the concept was eventually scaled back due to cost and structural issues.
