A forgotten relic of September 11, 2001, lies buried beneath New York City’s subway system—a surviving steel column from the original World Trade Center. The column, one of the last intact remnants of the Twin Towers, was salvaged from the wreckage and repurposed as part of the subway’s infrastructure. Its presence offers a quiet but powerful connection to the site’s history, now hidden from public view. The discovery raises questions about how such a significant piece of history remains largely unknown to commuters passing overhead.
