Which is also a mess, the billion dollar upgrade was started before the vote and the planning committee that lobbyed for the moving MSG tried to suggest moving MSG to USPS facility site a few blocks away to which the USPS said they will have no involvement in that project. Basically it will be a huge battle in 8 years when the lease is up especially considering the upgrades to Penn Station were estimated to cost at least $4 billion with another $10 billion for transportation upgrades. They also have to convince an office tower to move as their as they have columns that go to the track level before work can begin.
