(ECNS) -- The WTC Cortlandt subway station opened under the World Trade Center complex in New York on Sept. 8.
The old Cortlandt Street station on the No.1 line was buried under the rubble of the World Trade Center's twin towers on Sept. 11, 2001.
Construction of the new station was delayed until rebuilding of the surrounding towers was well under way.
The new station cost $181 million and features a mosaic that uses words from the Declaration of Independence and the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
