You get a shiny new concourse that still leads to a track and platform layout that is not optimized for the current primary role of the station. This is a huge commuter destination, a very busy regional rail destination, and a place where some LD trains originate. If the old Penn Station were still there, it would likely be inappropriate for today's passenger mix. The real work needed is "underneath". As others have previously pointed out, it may have been a major mistake to allow this commuter pattern to develop, without exploring (and creating) reasonable options to offer alternate routing. |
