Well, they bought it, didn't they? I'm sure they have some use in mind for it. It's landfill, like the rest of the area, but was only filled in in recent years. MTA (or somebody) paid to cap the landfill with soil.

If MTA is making huge land purchases in the outer boroughs with no clear intention, then maybe that's why the Second Ave Subway continues to languish...
