The emotional experience
"In stages, Port Authority workers switched on the array of escalators in the bank known as "PATH Hill." By 7:30 a.m., all eight were moving, groaning and creaking as they delivered growing numbers of commuters to the concourse, where they were greeted by the beeping of construction vehicles at the site."
In another article they mention the floors :
"About 50 feet of travertine flooring and six shallow travertine steps from the old World Trade Center concourse can still be found in the vestibule between the station and the E train platform."
Keeping them was "the right thing to do," said Robert I. Davidson, chief architect of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, who designed the station, working with the engineer Jerrold Dinkels and the Pentagram studio."
In both articles they use the term "path hill" for the escalator bank, a term I'm unfamiliar with.
