The doors and original ADA-accessible ramp , as well as the structure from the first World Trade Center leading into the station , survived the September 11 attacks . The station itself was not damaged , but it was covered by dust and was subsequently closed . The passageway reopened for a while to provide an ADA-connection from the New York City Subway station to the temporary World Trade Center PATH station , but was closed again when the temporary PATH station closed for a reconstruction . The passageway was then covered in plywood for preservation purposes
