NYC - PABT floorplans

Hello,

I am a french architecture student from Strasbourg, and I am now working on my master degree in architecture about the Port Authority Bus Terminal.

Because of the current situation I will not be able to visit the bus terminal.
May it be possible that someone of you have documents of the PABT or would know where I could acces them ? Like floorplans or even a photo of a fire exit plan that is hanging around ?

I am sorry for this request.

I hope you and your family are doing fine in these hard times.

Thank you in advance.

Lion

Did you email the Port Authority? They may have some publicly available docs.

Keep in mind that detailed schematics probably aren't available except in special circumstances, as the PABT is a prime landmark and therefore considered a possible terror target.

But if you're an academic, there should be a procedure for requesting documents. Public authorities in the U.S. will have procedures for formal academic requests.

Exactly what I was thinking. Actual floorplans will be hard to come by.
