Is it the face of an angel? According to some, yes. The face of an angel can be seen in a monument to the World Trade Center made of twisted steel from the site.

NEW YORK, NY (Catholic Online) - When viewed from the correct angle, an angelic visage on a twisted steel beam from the World Trade Center, comes into view. The beam is believed to be one of several that American Airlines Flight 11 slammed into on Sept. 11, 2001.
The beam was weakened by the intense fire stoked by hotly-burning aviation fuel as well as the tremendous weight of the many floors above the impact zone. Eventually the beam twisted and gave way, along with dozens of others, as the upper floors of the WTC came crashing down.
Once buried under a small mountain of rubble, the beam was then exposed to water, rust, salts and other elements which likely imprinted the pattern on its surface.
Or, it could actually just be a miracle intended to comfort those who view the memorial?
No matter the origin, the angelic face should serve as a reminder and a comfort to those who lost loved ones on that fateful day. In the face of such deep misery and despair, God's angels went to work, plucking souls from buried, broken bodies to carry to heaven on that fateful day where we believe they were made whole again in communion with beloved Christ.
