OWO is deeply connected to NYC transit. Pick the line that drops you closest, then follow clear wayfinding to the West Street entrance.

Fastest Lines

  • E to World Trade Center (inside the complex).
  • A/C to Chambers, walk south via West Street.
  • 2/3/4/5/R/W to Fulton, follow Oculus signs.
  • PATH to WTC from Jersey City/Hoboken.

From Your Stop

  • Follow signs to One World Trade Center; the observatory entrance is on West Street.
  • The Oculus staff are excellent at giving directions — just ask.

Coming From Elsewhere

  • Midtown: A/C or E are usually simplest.
  • Brooklyn: R/W to Cortlandt or A/C to Fulton.
  • Jersey City/Hoboken: PATH to WTC.

Tip: In rain, route through the Oculus for a covered approach and good signage.
