RPA testifies in support of Moynihan Station Phase One

RPA's Juliette Michaelson testified at an ESDC hearing on the proposed revised General Project Plan for Phase One of the greater Moynihan Station project. She emphasized the project's tangible benefits for Penn Station's 400,000 daily users including widening and lengthening the West End Concourse and building two new entrances into the station through the Farley building. These and other improvements will decrease wait times getting up from the platforms, provide more direct routes to the street, increase safety, and improve passenger amenities. The first phase of the project is fully funded and can begin construction this year.
