I don't know if it's so bad. The cost overruns were almost a given with this thing. They moved the completion date up, and can't make it, so they're going back to the original completion date, a few months later. But the good news is that overall it's on track, and should (should) open by the end of the year. I try to get peeks as I'm walking through there. You can smell the newness of it all. Likewise, at the opposite end, the new 7th Avenue entrance is on pace to open by the end of the year. That's something to look forward to as this awful year comes to a close. |

That 7th Ave entrance just looks like its going to blast cold air down into the station in the winter.

It is a welcome addition for sure, but until our elected "leaders" get their acts together and give us a proper Penn Station, it will never be anything besides a pretty gauze on a gaping wound.

Fitting that this opens on January 1, as we look forward to the new year, and new beginnings for the city after a rough year for everyone...
The photos of the empty station look like a city frozen in time. It will be interesting to see the station begin to come to life. The station and the rest of the building still has more work to go, but the train hall will be in use for the public.

JANUARY 1, 2021
They’re further along inside than I previously thought. I love public spaces and mass transit, so it’s exciting to see this entry into cityscape open up. No doubt it will be seen many times, whether you are in New York or not. I had already become accustomed to using the Moynihan exits, so the new hall opening up is like some great magic trick, as if it appeared out of thin air. 1. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...0.IMG_4795.JPG 2. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...U.IMG_4796.JPG 3. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...v.IMG_4797.JPG 4. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...6.IMG_4798.JPG 5. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...y.IMG_4799.JPG 6. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...K.IMG_4800.JPG 7. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...5.IMG_4801.JPG 8. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...z.IMG_4802.JPG 9. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...0.IMG_4803.JPG 10. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...f.IMG_4804.JPG 11. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...7.IMG_4805.JPG 12. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...H.IMG_4806.JPG 13. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...E.IMG_4807.JPG 14. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...C.IMG_4808.JPG 15. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...H.IMG_4809.JPG |

Thanks for the photos. |

It's a long overdue addition. I tried to familiarize myself a little with the layout. Only the Moynihan Hall portion of the building is open. And the restaurants, stores, and food hall aren't open yet either. The building will become much more lively when that happens, and when Facebook moves in. But it's already a beautiful site. Didn't get to see all of it just yet, and didn't get over to the east end to see what's going on there. But I'm excited to finally see this thing open. It's already a destination of it own. 16. https://a4.pbase.com/g12/06/102706/2...9.hJlfPMsE.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...5.IMG_4872.JPG 17. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...2.IMG_4874.JPG 18. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...x.IMG_4875.JPG 19. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...k.IMG_4876.JPG 20. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...L.IMG_4877.JPG 21. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...P.IMG_4878.JPG 22. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...w.IMG_4879.JPG 23. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...t.IMG_4880.JPG 24. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...D.IMG_4881.JPG 25. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...6.IMG_4882.JPG 26. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...9.IMG_4883.JPG 27. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...7.IMG_4884.JPG 28. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...o.IMG_4885.JPG 29. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...E.IMG_4886.JPG 30. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...8.IMG_4887.JPG 31. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...L.IMG_4888.JPG 32. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...8.IMG_4889.JPG 33. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...A.IMG_4890.JPG 34. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...Q.IMG_4891.JPG 35. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...0.IMG_4892.JPG |

Looks even better with people...

I hope there's at least one Hudson News and one Dunkin Donuts in the new Train Hall ... can't stand Starbucks ...

Mostly likely there will be. There's already a coffee shop open, I didn't pay attention enough to see what it was, but don't think it was a Starbucks. The food hall itself isn't scheduled to be open until the fall (and with the ongoing pandemic, it's just as well). But I think some of the retail in the train hall itself will open sooner. I already saw a Magnolia Bakery that looks like it will open soon down on the main floor. They make good stuff. But yeah, the place is busier, there's a buzz around, like everyone is excited for the place. Or maybe everyone's just been locked inside for too long. People were even stopping to check out the renderings of coming stores and restaurants. Even at the east end, with the new 7th Avenue entrance, there was a buzz. Something for the people to get excited about in these times. I took a few clips, and more pics on Day 2 of the opening... You can already see the station filling out more... 41. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...S.IMG_5108.JPG 42. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...T.IMG_5109.JPG 43. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...T.IMG_5110.JPG 44. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...o.IMG_5111.JPG 45. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...W.IMG_5112.JPG 46. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...4.IMG_5113.JPG 47. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...Z.IMG_5114.JPG 48. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...M.IMG_5115.JPG 49. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...r.IMG_5116.JPG 50. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...T.IMG_5117.JPG Made it over to the 33rd Street entrance today, and I hadn't realized before the difference in grade between 33rd and 31st Street. So the mid-block passage, which you have to go up a level to reach from the 31st Street side, is at street level on the 33rd Street side. This is where you will get into more retail, and make your way to the food hall, and 9th Avenue. 51. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...Y.IMG_5118.JPG 52. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...6.IMG_5119.JPG 53. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...a.IMG_5120.JPG 54. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...S.IMG_5121.JPG 55. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...m.IMG_5122.JPG 56. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...e.IMG_5123.JPG 57. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...a.IMG_5124.JPG 58. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...J.IMG_5125.JPG 59. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...x.IMG_5126.JPG 60. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...G.IMG_5127.JPG 61. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...Z.IMG_5128.JPG 62. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...c.IMG_5129.JPG 63. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...Y.IMG_5130.JPG 64. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...7.IMG_5131.JPG 65. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...m.IMG_5132.JPG 66. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...V.IMG_5133.JPG 67. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...w.IMG_5134.JPG 68. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...S.IMG_5135.JPG 69. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...s.IMG_5136.JPG 70. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...8.IMG_5137.JPG 71. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...B.IMG_5138.JPG Meanwhile, over on the east end, the new 7th Avenue entrance to Penn is open, generating it's own buzz... 72. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...I.IMG_5139.JPG 73. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...N.IMG_5140.JPG 74. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...D.IMG_5141.JPG 75. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...C.IMG_5142.JPG 76. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...f.IMG_5143.JPG 77. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...4.IMG_5144.JPG 78. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...3.IMG_5145.JPG 79. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...9.IMG_5146.JPG 80. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...H.IMG_5147.JPG 81. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...q.IMG_5148.JPG 82. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...G.IMG_5149.JPG |
It looks fantastic.
Hoping to make it back up there this summer if the pandemic calms down. |

I know everyone is oohing over the hall but the new departure boards are shockingly good. Just amazing.
Only upgrade would be to display NJT trains that are accessible from the hall but I assume that's a result of never ending turf wars. |

I know it's petty but I want to see Longines on that clock.

Fantastic hall!! But I am sorry that it is closed 1-5am. Is instead open 24/7 the new 7th avenue/33rd street entrance? Thanks for the possible reply.

NJ Transit also has a nice train hall of its own, although much smaller than Moynihan, on 7th Ave, and will be the main user of the expansion south. Quote:

Newark Penn is similar. Closes for a little bit at night, very late at night. Usually to clean the Amtrak benches from the folks sleeping on them.

not sure about the new entrance specifically, but: What are the hours of operation at Moynihan Train Hall? Moynihan Train Hall will be open to the public daily from 5:00 a.m. through 1:00 a.m. Moynihan Train Hall will be closed to the public between 1:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. Between 1:00 a.m. – 5:00 a.m., all Amtrak operations will be handled at New York Penn Station including baggage, Red Cap services, access and egress to platforms. |
^ The Hall is supposed to be 5 a.m. to 1 a.m.
