And if that's how Penn Station gets financed, then look out. Because any developer out there knows it won't matter how much the project costs or how much the costs explode, because at the end of the day we pay for it nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/07/t...

Once a developer borrows billions, it has to make its money and turn a profit, somehow. And in the case of a place like Penn Station, the easiest way to do that is either charge transit agencies huge fees or put a surcharge on every train ticket nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/07/t...

The reason for this is because Amtrak has said that whatever developer wins the contract to build the station is also responsible for finding the financing for it, which would mean billions of dollars of borrowing on the private market nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/07/t...
