The project’s specific context and a variety of actors and interests add to the complexity of the decision processes. All projects deviate, to a certain degree from a “rational” decision-making process, are politically motivated and subject to multiple interests.

Already, more than half McKinsey’s Cities Special the world’s population lives in cities, and millions more Initiative move to urban areas every year. To meet their needs and expectations, infrastructure is critical. The problem, according to McKinsey research, is that the world is spending far less on infrastructure than is required to keep up with economic growth. Closing this gap, particularly in the complex urban context, will require ingenuity, dedication, and leadership. In this edition of Voices, we offer some of the best contemporary thinking on this subject. While McKinsey plays an important part in producing Voices, more than half the contributions represent the views of leading external practitioners, which are not always consistent with those of McKinsey.

  • Re)New Your City, New York City: Transporting Transformation Hubs
    (Re)New Your City, New York City: Transporting Transformation Hubs A Senior Honors Thesis submitted by Rayn Riel In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts In Interdisciplinary Studies (International Urban Development) Tufts University August 2015 Advisor: Professor Weiping Wu, Department of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning Reader: Professor Daniel Abramson, Department of Art and Art History i| (RE)New Your City, New York City ABSTRACT: New York’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) is constantly running trains, but it is also constantly running a deficit. Unlike profitable transportation companies, such as the Hong Kong Mass Transit Railway (MTR), the MTA has few valuable real estate assets which could be adequately transformed into transit-oriented and transit-owned joint development hubs. Similar to other U.S. public transportation agencies, space for pragmatic and profitable commercial activities – including shops and offices operating on agency-owned land – is limited to a few select stations, yards, concourses, and passageways, because most profitable assets from private predecessors were sold decades ago. However, while the MTA’s ability to remain revenue-positive or self-sufficient through real estate development is stymied, the MTA has been capitalizing upon its few existing assets for additional revenue. This process, however, in coordination with the City of New York in order to develop value capture mechanisms, is lengthy and cumbersome. The MTA has not developed the resources needed to develop property. This Senior Honors Thesis elucidates how the MTA can overcome organizational barriers in order to contextually ‘transport’ the MTA’s limited portfolio of assets into ‘transformation hubs’, and in order to do so, advocate for a privatized, profitable, and independent real estate development division of the MTA, chartered for real estate development.

  • Derailed on Arrival? Jay Walder & the NY MTA's Surprise Budget Crisis
    HKS702 Case Number 1962.0 Derailed on Arrival? Jay Walder & the NY MTA’s Surprise Budget Crisis Jay Walder MPP ’83 had his eyes open when he agreed to take the job of Chief Executive Officer at the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) in October 2009—or at least, he thought so at the time. Coming off a successful stint at Transport for London and armed with a healthy foreknowledge of New York politics, he had no illusions about the complexity of his new role. The MTA operated the largest transit system in North America,1 crucial to the life and economy of metropolitan New York. Eighty percent of rush hour commuters to New York City’s central business district traveled there by public transportation—most of it provided by the MTA. The authority operated the subways, buses, and two commuter rails that served 14.6 million people in a 5,000 square mile region centered in New York City and fanning out to Long Island, southeastern New York State, and Connecticut.2 Vast and impressive, the MTA was also saddled with early 20th century infrastructure, vilified by the elected officials charged with funding it, distrusted for its episodic financial crises, locked in battle with an aggressive union, and frequently disparaged by the media and its own riders—the 8.5 million people transported in and around New York City every day.3 But Walder was a congenital optimist—and the timing seemed propitious. A few months earlier, the state legislature had approved a financial bailout for the MTA that was expected to keep it financially stable for at least two years, maybe longer.

  • EVENT REPORT MAY 3-6, 2017 - - - - , , and for Powered by People Good Reason
    EVENT REPORT MAY 3-6, 2017 FROM OUR CEO OUR FROM LETTER A For the frst time in history, the world’s population is 50% urban; by 2050, our cities are predicted to contain 70% of the world’s population. Although growth provides many exciting opportunities to innovate and improve our quality of life, we must recognize the challenges we face in areas such as energy, pollution, transportation, health, inclusion, in- vestment, growth, and the economy, to name but a few. This makes our cities the best places to innovate and improve our quality of life. At Smart Cities New York, our motto is Powered by People, and for good reason. The path forward can only be found by harnessing those among us who have the insight and drive to design and build civic-mind- ed technologies. And, we are all eager to work to build smarter, safer, more inclusive urban environments. From New York to Dubai, new ideas and investment opportunities abound, and we encourage you to make them. Smart Cities NYC ’17 showcased solutions from MIT, Columbia, NYU, and Harvard who taught us new ways to join public and private in effective partnerships. Many innovative companies and startups showcased their ideas and solutions, and are looking for partners for deployment. We encourage you to reach out and build relationships. We are fortunate to have so many talented, driven, and innovative partic- ipants who understand that challenges lead to opportunities. Throughout Smart Cities NYC 2017, we worked with our partners from around the world to challenge paradigms, highlight solutions, and champion those who are dedicating their lives to solving the problems facing our cities.
