Port Authority eyes new bus terminal location

The future sits a block to the west, where the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey plans to construct a new bus terminal, a $10.5 billion behemoth stretching from Ninth Avenue to Eleventh Avenue that would nearly border the Hudson River. The simple concept of building a new terminal was approved in October, though decisions on even the most basic details — such as size and location — won't occur until next year.

When bidding on the contract, designers have been asked to consider alternate sites if they have a better idea. The board won’t approve a particular design or contract until September 2016.

"This is an unbelievably complicated project being done at the crossroads of the world, on the site of some of the most expensive and important real estate in the world," Foye said. "It's the largest infrastructure project that will be done to date by the Port Authority and one of the largest infrastructure projects ever done in the Untied States. It takes time, and I think the time has served the project well."
