Gov. Kathy Hochul and MTA officials announced a plan Monday to build a new Penn Station -- and this one might get some critics on board. MKramerTV has all the details.
Opponents of the controversial redevelopment plan tried to drown out the governor and transit officials as they spoke of plans for the new West Side transportation hub for 600,000-plus suburban commuters.MSG Entertainment says it is disappointed in MTA's compatibility report on Penn Station
But if they had listened instead of protesting they would have discovered that officials have heard their opposition to the original Penn Station plan proposed by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo. It included building up to 10 megatowers of luxury commercial and apartment space that would have displaced many who live in the area.
"We are decoupling two components. We are going to focus on this building, itself, and the immediate environs, beautify the streetscapes, and put in benches and plantings and community gathering spaces, and, really, as we have been asked to do, to save the neighborhood," Hochul said.
