Langan designed an open plaza with views to the World Trade Center and a crescent-shaped interpretive center for its entry in "New Jersey's September 11, 2001 Memorial Design Competition." Within the plan, visitors re-experience time before, during, and after the 9.11 tragedy. A walk through a tunnel filled with structural debris references the last morning’s walk of the victims and the moment of tragedy.

Today's century-old passenger rail system under the Hudson River, which connects New York and New Jersey, has reached its capacity—and serves as a bottleneck affecting the region's mobility, health and economic future. The Trans-Hudson Express Tunnel (also known as THE Tunnel), which will run from The Frank R. Lautenberg Station in Secaucus, New Jersey to Manhattan, will connect to 14 subway lines and PATH, Amtrak, New Jersey Transit, and Long Island Rail Road trains—doubling capacity.
