Its blurry because it was taken through a dirty train window (and a layer of construction mesh), and though there are many pros and cons about this "", I wanted to document it.

This is the first trench they've dug/blasted, to begin pouring the foundation for the underground vaults on the east side of the new building's footprint.

Its nice that they're finally doing something in "The Hole"...

I think it is good that they are getting this project on the road. It kind of says in your face to the terrorists.

Janet: 2nd Nov 2006 - 22:29 GMT

yea, I agree, i can't wait to go see it when it is finnally done.

Peter: 2nd Nov 2006 - 22:29 GMT

thats stupid to think a building says shit to "the terrorists". its just another building, to fill a hole.

Shanicus: 3rd Nov 2006 - 03:07 GMT

I agree with Peter. Terrorists don't care about the rebuilding of this place. And, if it really was an "in your face" moment, then why has it taken so long to get anything started? Politics as usual, if you ask me.

As a High School student in the 1960's, I captured this shot without raising an eyebrow of suspicion of the NYPD. Innocent times.
