Here's everything you need to know about the brandy new LIRR station at Grand Central Terminal.
“It’s a useful project. But for $11 billion, it would be better not to have built it,” said Alon Levy, transportation fellow at New York University’s Marron Institute, who has been compiling railway cost data from around the world.
“This is not a small project. This is one of the greatest engineering feats. And it’s a tribute to the MTA that they were able to overcome what I would say was some delays of bureaucracy, delays of engineering,” said Mitchell Moss, a professor of urban policy and planning at New York University. Over the past week, the Long Island Rail Road carried about 1 million riders, or about two-thirds the number it transported for roughly the same week in 2019, according to statistics compiled by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
