We’re calling for an IBX Transit-Oriented Development Special District to streamline rezonings, align transit with housing, and make sure we’re ready to build.

This transit line brings a once-in-a-generation chance to reimagine housing, infrastructure, and equity in our city.

“The Interborough Express is a transformative project that will further solidify New York’s legacy as the global powerhouse it is today,” said our President and CEO
Carlo A. Scissura, Esq.

Our latest analysis shows the IBX could deliver:

✅ 70,000+ new homes
✅ 32,000+ new jobs
✅ Stronger, more connected neighborhoods across Brooklyn and Queens

This is exactly the bold direction our grid needs to stay reliable, affordable, and sustainable.

💡The Governor's call for a new nuclear reactor could power over a million homes, stabilize energy bills, and help keep our climate goals within reach a bold move that aligns with the urgent needs outlined in our recent Energy Report: "Powering the Empire State".

Thank you to the summit organizers for making space for this important conversation. We look forward to more opportunities to take our message on the road and keep shaping the future of infrastructure. 🌆

A special moment came when Polly Trottenberg surprised the room with a question. Carlo called her an "infrastructure czar" and Lisa dubbed her "Auntie Congestion Pricing" for the key role she played in launching the program. 👏

Lisa Daglian of the Permanent Citizens Advisory Committee to the MTA (PCAC) and Dani Simons of Alstom brought their expert insights to the conversation, highlighting the years-long journey to implementation and the complex challenges that followed.
