Moynihan Train Hall Opens at Penn Station [View all]
NEW YORK - The $1.6 billion project transformed the more than one hundred year-old James A. Farley post office on 8th Avenue and 33rd Street into a state-of-the-air transit hub.
Commuters who take the LIRR and Amtrak can head to the new train hall to catch their trains.
Governor Andrew Cuomo cut the ribbon on the 255,000-square-foot transit hub for Amtrak and Long Island Rail Road commuters, providing them a bright and spacious alternative to the dingy and cramped Penn Station.
The project is the brain child of the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan from back in the 1990s, but Governor Cuomo took the venture and put it into fruition starting in 2017.
The big draw for the people who headed there Friday was the 92-foot-high Skylight.
