OBJECTIVES • Connectivity and Accessibility Enhance the accessibility within the district and the surrounding area through a diversified functional use of spaces apart from improving pedestrian circulation. • Relocate MSG and Form a New Penn Station Reintroduce MSG at a new strategic location that has greater functionality, activates the district towards the west and provides a greater public beneficial to the surrounding neighbourhood. Revitalise Penn Station in its current location as a new superstructure that reinforces its role as a gateway entrance to New York City. • A New Commercial District Strategically locate towers across the district that better define the streets, offering multi-functional spaces while activating the ground-floor along streets. Achieve an atmosphere that welcomes visitors and creates a new commercial district for New York.
