World Trade Center Site Animation

MYFOXNY.COM - Fox 5 News exclusively obtained this World Trade Center site animation. It's a time-lapse animation of the World Trade Center site that sends viewers on an incredible journey into the future. For the first time ever you can see ground zero transformed from a construction site into the incredible World Trade Center complex.

At the animation's center the National September 11 Memorial springs to life with a park that spans 8 acres, twice the size of Midtown's Bryant Park. At the heart are two enormous memorial fountains that sit exactly where the Twin Towers once stood. If you look closely you can see water flowing through the two largest man-made fountains in the United States.

1 World Trade center rises from ground level to command the skyline at 1,776 feet becoming New York's tallest skyscraper, with an exterior covered in 1 million square feet of glass.

The multi-billion dollar WTC Transit Hub rises from ground level bringing Santiago Calatrava's imaginative design to life.

And the entire scene is even more spectacular as day turns to night.

Before your eyes Lower Manhattan experiences a glorious new birth, and you can imagine the National September 11 Memorial inspiring a city, the country and the world.

Fox 5 News would like to thank Brookfield Properties for allowing us to share this animation with the world.
