Public Hearing: “Redevelopment of the World Trade Center: Time to Move Forward”
Borough of Manhattan Community College - Theatre 2

Notice of Public Hearing
New York State Senate
Title: “Redevelopment of the World Trade Center: Time to Move Forward”
Subject and Purpose: Redevelopment of the World Trade Center following the September 11th attacks has been delayed numerous times. Today, nearly eight years after the fact, the site stands nowhere near completion. In the meantime costs have risen dramatically, the public’s frustration mounts and victims’ families are without a Memorial. This hearing will allow the New York Senate’s Committee on Corporations, Authorities, and Commissions to receive testimony from the major stakeholders in order to determine where the project stands, what processes led to the current impasse, and what the best options are for moving forward.
