The Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s Long Island Railroad (LIRR) has inaugurated service into the newly constructed Grand Central Madison Terminal. The expanded service is the outcome of an $11-billion project to connect the LIRR to the East Side of Manhattan. The city plans to replace 10-million square feet of aging commercial space surrounding the Grand Central area, including RXR and TF Cornerstone’s 2-million square foot development at 175 Park Avenue.
