The Oculus is a futuristic building! Amazing architecture and a real wonder. It's a transportation hub and a huge shopping complex. The design shows a dove but it takes a bit of effort to actually see the whole thing. Worth visiting and having a walk through.

It’s a very cool building. It’s a transit hub. It’s a mall. It’s not much else. I stopped by The Oculus while exploring lower Manhattan to check it out. The architecture was cool to look at for a bit, then I went inside to find somewhere to sit after a long day of walking around. No luck. Stores were the same ones you find in just about any other mall. I came, I saw, I said “this place looks pretty cool”, and I left. Not much more to it than that.

This is my third visit and the Oculus never disappoints me. Amazing design and architecture. What a cool building. Great shops and then outside there were a lot of stalls eateries, great variety of food.

This building is one of the most interesting and unique places I’ve ever seen! I’m not really into modern architecture but this really did catch my eye! It’s great to see and has a good variety of shops! The area is very spacious too! The subway below is also stunning and it is great to come out of the subway to such a spectacular building! Definitely worth a visit!

The Oculus is a magnificent structure. It is quite grand and stands out amongst the surrounding area. I later found out that it was designed by a Spanish architect. It reminds me of some of the buildings close to the waterfront in Valencia. As well as being a shopping center it there is also a PATH station to take you under the Hudson River to destinations in New Jersey. The Oculus has a very peaceful ambience about it and worth checking out for a bit of retail therapy.

Incredible piece of architecture situated at World Trade Center. Quite mind blowing and full of symbolism after the terrible events of 9/11. A great place to take photos , shop and eat , also many connecting travel links are all under one roof.

Absolutely amazing, located next to the 9/11 Memorial. It was opened in 2016 after 12 years of work. The building was part of the city’s plan to rebuild the World Trade Center after September 11. It is a transportation hub and a shopping mall built alongside the One World Trade Center.

This shopping center is beautifully designed, and brings in a hoard of natural light from outside. It's also a transit connecting station where you can take the PATH over to Jersey. Most people come here after the 9/11 memorial next door. There are lots of shops and cafes in here, as it's multiple levels.only drawback is that they probably need more restrooms. One of the best parts is that you can visit inside for free.

Through mid January, this inside roller skating rink is available for your inner kid self to come out. Oh what fun we had. Tickets include a forty-five minute skating session and a rental of roller skates. Adult charge is $30 and kids over 8 years old can participate. Festive music is in the background as you roll away in the rink. Food vendors are also available. Walk-ins are available but I would highly recommend you buy tickets in advance online. Also recommend you not bring unnecessary bags for this fun experience.

We took the subway downtown to see the WTC Memorial on Christmas Eve day, and had to go through here to get to it. We also had to go through here to catch the subway back to midtown so had opportunity to walk around. Far too much opulence, too reminiscent of a society run by a new world order. Being in here gave me a headache. Outside it is even more ugly.
