04.06.2009 Using the Hudson to Cool the Trade Center
By David W. Dunlap
A critical lifeline to the new World Trade Center from the very old Hudson River — four water pipes large enough for workers to crawl through — is nearing completion along West Street.
The pipes now extend from the Battery Park City bulkhead to the foundation wall on the west side of the trade center site. They will deliver cool river water — up to 30,000 gallons a minute at the peak — to the center’s chiller plant and then discharge it back into the river.
The $200 million chiller plant will cool and dehumidify air in the exhibition... [+]

Columbus Circle Reconstruction
Project of the Year - Overall Winner
by Tom Stabile
Frederick Law Olmsted's 1858 vision for Manhattan's Central Park called for four grand plazas at the corners where the great rectangular space blends into city streets. But on the southwestern corner, it didn't work out that way.
It took until 1892 for the corner to get its signature feature, a Carrara marble monument to Christopher Columbus, under whose 1.5-million-ton foundation the IRT built its subway tunnels and Columbus Circle station 10 years later. Then, the advent of motor... [+]

World Trade Center Temporary Path Station
The design and construction teams that worked on the temporary PATH station at the World Trade Center site treated their task as more than just constructing an impermanent structure - and with good reason.
Restoring PATH service was a critical step in helping Lower Manhattan recover from the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. And though it is only temporary, the station contains the first vertical elements to rise where the Twin Towers once stood: two 60-ft.-high tubular steel columns that support a 95- by... [+]

03.24.2002 $1 Billion in Aid to Help Cover City for Ground Zero Liability

By RAYMOND HERNANDEZ
The Bush administration wants to provide up to $1 billion to shield New York City and scores of contractors against lawsuits stemming from the World Trade Center cleanup.
For months, insurers have refused to provide liability coverage to the city and contracting companies working there, arguing that the cleanup is far too big and the risk associated with it too hard to measure.
That has left the city and the contractors exposed to a potential wave of lawsuits by people who live or work near ground zero, claiming that they were sickened or injured... [+]

The New York Times (nytimes.com)
September 28, 2001
By RANDY KENNEDY
New York City Transit officials have determined that damage to the No. 1 and 9 subway tunnels and stations in Lower Manhattan is so extensive that the line will need to be completely rebuilt for more than a mile.
The work on the line from just south of Chambers Street all the way to the end, at the South Ferry station, could take more than two years, transit officials said this week, adding that they could not speculate beyond that. They also declined to estimate the cost because they did not want city,... [+]
