Back to EpisodesThe Westchester Brief | 07.22.26: New Rochelle's Transit Center — The Real Number
Description
New Rochelle's downtown transit center rebuild has been widely mis-reported at $125 million — that figure actually belongs to a separate Yonkers-area project. The real cost is $100 million. We correct the record and walk through what the rebuild means for Metro-North commuters, inside the MTA's $7.7 billion five-year Hudson Line investment.
