ABC Wednesday: F is for World Financial Center and World Trade Center

This is the Winter Garden of the World Financial Center of New York.  My sister and I took a ferry from the Exchange Place at Jersey City, New Jersey across the Hudson River and arrived at the World Financial Center.  It has office buildings, food court and shopping center.

This is a full view of the Winter Garden of the World Financial Center.  When we turned around at this spot, we then facing the observation deck of the World Trade Center Site.

This is the 1 World Trade Center now under construction.  The 911 memorial will be finished this year and will open to the public on September 11 this year.

Coming out from the World Financial Center, looking up, we can see the 1 World Trade Center at the left and the 7 World Trade Center at the right.  7 World Trade Center also collapsed following the collapsing of the twin tower in 911.  The reconstruction was finished in 2008.

Here is the 1 WTC and 7 WTC as seen at night.

I would have never expected to see palm trees in NYC! The nighttime shot is spectacular.
