State Senator Urges Transformation of Long Abandoned MTA Building
State Senator Daniel Squadron (D-Downtown Brooklyn/Lower Manhattan) welcomed MTA Chair Joe Lhota’s comments at his confirmation hearing on the future of the nearly abandoned former MTA headquarters at 370 Jay St.
Lhota said, “Jay Street will happen long before 347 Madison Ave.,” referring to the MTA’s planned sale of its Midtown Manhattan headquarters. Lhota also stated that the MTA will work with the city to remove the communications equipment that remains in the building.
