Tokens of a lost icon: WTC Plaza signs

The Port Authority's collection includes several signs salvaged from the Austin Tobin Plaza. They include signs for the 1/9 train and 5 World Trade Center, one of the smaller buildings. They also saved a plaque honoring Austin Tobin, head of the Port Authority during the creation of the towers, as well as a 1973 metal marker that honored the people who built the towers.
