Seems like the same mentality that knocked down the original Penn Station building to construct the hideous MSG and plaza. If anything, they should knock down MSG and the plaza, which I know is wishful thinking. One or two new buildings are fine, as far as I am concerned, but they don't have to develop whole blocks here.

true and the whole thing is just because no one has the stones to shove the dolans out of there and knock out msg. i mean they are going to eminent domain here and eminent domain there, but not the garden? makes no #%@*ing sense. well, it does ... when you consider the fix is in, not what's best for penn station redevelopment.
