Javits won't be there in 15 years, count on it. The state would be losing out on billions and the city would lose about 20 million square ft. of development in the middle of Hudson Yards. And obviously the convention business needs an up-to-date center; Javits was out-of-date even 30 years ago.

There could hardly be a more idiotic land-use decision than putting a giant one-floor warehouse space in the middle of Hudson Yards. It makes the destruction of Penn Station look like genius.
If I could downvote this I would. Have you even been inside Javits Center? Its much more than one floor,
