PENN STATION—Governor Cuomo announced today that there is a plan in placed to allow Metro North access to Penn Station and bring four new transit stations to the Bronx. Some were unimpressed. "Cuomo just called for Penn Station Access in his State of the State speech. Still taking credit for ideas that have long been planned," tweeted Second Ave. Sagas, who added, "Don't get me wrong: Glad he's talking about it, but Penn Station Access has been on the table for years, long before he became Governor."
