A Massive Economic and Infrastructure Boost for NYC
Wynn New York City’s proposal maximizes the economic and social benefit for New Yorkers by creating thousands of good-paying, permanent career jobs in Manhattan while generating billions in investment and tax revenue to support New York’s critical services.
-5,000+ Permanent Union Careers
New, permanent, good-paying jobs with full benefits will be available to local residents across multiple professions at Wynn New York City.
-35,000+ Union Construction Jobs
This project will create the most unionized construction jobs of any proposal for New York.
-$12 Billion Total Project Investment
Wynn New York City is the catalyst for $12 billion in development of the entire western half of Hudson Yards. Building on the success of the first phase, Hudson Yards West will continue to make Hudson Yards our state’s largest economic and infrastructure catalyst, driving unmatched tax revenue for critical services to the state and city.

Finish The Yards
We present a new vision that takes into consideration how New Yorkers live in 2024 and how the City’s economy has changed while remaining in full compliance with existing approved uses from the existing zoning.
The original plan for the Western Rail Yard—that was agreed to by the community—always anticipated and accounted for the fact that markets change and allowed for flexibility.
This next phase for Hudson Yards will maintain or enhance commitments made in the 2009 plan, including a larger community park, affordable housing, a public school, community facility, and a day care, while establishing an economic engine that provides careers for thousands of New Yorkers and meaningful benefits for all sectors of the community.

$2+ Billion for the MTA
The resort is the catalyst for the redevelopment of the entire Hudson Yards West site – for which stakeholders have long advocated – and will add billions of dollars more in long-term economic benefits to New York while supporting our public transit system. Specifically, because of the location over the MTA's western rail yards, the agency will see added financial benefit critical to infrastructure needs as soon as the first shovel hits the ground.
The project will also have significant economic impacts on the local and regional economy through its development and operation, including a $12 billion investment in New York with more than $2 billion dollars in revenue for the MTA.

A New Public Park
Hudson Green was designed by renowned landscape architects Sasaki, who have lead transformative projects such as The Chicago Riverwalk, The QueensWay Metropolitan Hub, and the NYC Community Parks Initiative to provide accessible and sustainable parks for underserved communities, and Hollander Design, whose portfolio includes individual homes, office towers, waterfront parks, and performing arts spaces.
With stunning views of the Hudson River, this new 5.6-acre public park creates an oasis of open lawns, gardens, playscapes, and groves that connect the West Side by providing additional access to the High Line and Hudson River Park. Comparable in size to Bryant Park, Hudson Green features a dog run, over 300 trees, 500 shrubs, and native flower beds that create an active landscape where people from the neighborhood can gather, play, and recharge.
