  • MTA Construction & Development, the Group Within the Agency Responsible for All Capital Construction Work
    NYS Senate East Side Access/East River Tunnels Oversight Hearing May 7, 2021 Opening / Acknowledgements Good morning. My name is Janno Lieber, and I am the President of MTA Construction & Development, the group within the agency responsible for all capital construction work. I want to thank Chair Comrie and Chair Kennedy for the invitation to speak with you all about some of our key MTA infrastructure projects, especially those where we overlap with Amtrak. Mass transit is the lifeblood of New York, and we need a strong system to power our recovery from this unprecedented crisis. Under the leadership of Governor Cuomo, New York has demonstrated national leadership by investing in transformational mega-projects like Moynihan Station, Second Avenue Subway, East Side Access, Third Track, and most recently, Metro-North Penn Station Access, which we want to begin building this year. But there is much more to be done, and more investment is needed. We have a once-in-a-generation infrastructure opportunity with the new administration in Washington – and we thank President Biden, Secretary Buttigieg and Senate Majority Leader, Chuck Schumer, for their support. It’s a new day to advance transit projects that will turbo-charge the post-COVID economy and address overdue challenges of social equity and climate change. East Side Access Today we are on the cusp of a transformational upgrade to our commuter railroads due to several key projects. Top of the list is East Side Access. I’m pleased to report that it is on target for completion by the end of 2022 as planned.

    Development News Highlights MANHATTAN - MID-2ND QUARTER 2019 PLUS AN OUTER BOROUGH SNAPSHOT Pictured: 315 Meserole Street Looking Ahead U.S. Treasury Releases Additional Opportunity Zones Guidelines On April 17th the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued a highly anticipated second set of proposed regulations related to the new Opportunity Zone (OZ) tax incentive. Created by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the tax benefi t is designed to drive economic development and create jobs by encouraging long-term investments in economically distressed communities nationwide according to the Treasury department’s press release. The latest 169-page release reportedly delivered guidance in a broader range of areas than many expected, hoping to provide investors who have been on the fence with the clarity needed to begin developing projects in distressed areas nationwide. Some government offi cials anticipate the program could spur $100 billion in new investment into the more than 8,762 zones nationwide, of which 306 are located in New York City; however there exist some concerns among critics that the program will incentivize gentrifi cation, or provide added benefi t to developers for projects they would have been pursued anyway. According to the press release by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), a key part of the newly released guidance clarifi es the “substantially all” requirements for the holding period and use of the tangible business property: • For use of the property, at least 70% of the property must be used in a qualifi ed OZ. • For the holding period of the property, tangible property must be qualifi ed opportunity zone business property for at least 90% of the Qualifi ed Opportunity Fund’s (QOF) or qualifi ed OZ business’s holding period.

  • Federal TIFIA Loan Helps Fund $2 Billion Rail Station P3 in NYC
    Federal TIFIA loan helps fund $2 billion rail station P3 in NYC By Jim Watts Published July 06 2017, 1∶37pm EDT More in Infrastructure, Public-private partnership, TIFIA, Washington DC, New York DALLAS -- A $537.5 million low-interest federal loan will provide most of the state’s contribution to the $1.85 billion redevelopment of an old post office in Manhattan into a modern train station being financed as a public-private partnership. Private partners will invest $630 million in the Moynihan Train Hall project in Manhattan in return for a 99- year concession to operate the facility’s massive commercial concourse. Empire State Development Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao said that the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act loan to the state’s Empire State Development for the Moynihan Train Hall would provide critical financing to the P3 project. “This TIFIA loan will help transform the James A. Farley Post Office Building in Manhattan to include a modern, state-of-the-art train station, delivering extensive improvements for passengers in easing congestion and delays,” she said Wednesday. “This is an important investment in the Northeast Corridor’s rail service and the economic vitality of the region.” The new facility is intended to relieve congestion at New York’s Penn Station, which is the busiest passenger transportation facility in the U.S. with 650,000 passengers per weekday. The 255,000-square-foot train hall will be built in the old post office building across the street from the current Penn Station in midtown Manhattan. It is named for the late Sen.
