Episode notes
New York City runs on infrastructure, but some of its most vital systems have long struggled to meet modern demands. In this episode, we're joined by Rick Cotton, Executive Director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, to explore two of the most ambitious transit projects in the country: the $19 billion transformation of JFK Airport and the long-overdue redevelopment of the Midtown Bus Terminal.
Together, these projects aim to reshape how over 80 million people move through the city each year. We discuss the challenges of building while staying operational, how lessons from LaGuardia are influencing the approach, and what it means to make long-term investments in the infrastructure New Yorkers use every day.
