New York State is building the future of business with infrastructure that supports success
The future of business in New York State is moving ever upward, buoyed by the lowest taxes in decades, a talented workforce, world-class innovations and major investments in the essential building blocks of progress: infrastructure and transportation. By making infrastructure and transportation projects a key priority, the State of New York is demonstrating a strong commitment to remaining competitive in an evolving global economy.
With an additional $150 billion investment in the nation's largest infrastructure program, we're building the new New York with major investments in airports, roads and bridges around the state. The soaring spans of the new Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge and the Kosciuszko Bridge are open to traffic and redefining the New York landscape. Our airports are being transformed—from LaGuardia and JFK to Plattsburgh, Albany, Syracuse and Rochester—along with new train stations in Rochester and Schenectady. At New York City’s Pennsylvania Station, we’re transforming the historic James A. Farley Post Office into the 255,000-square-foot Moynihan Train Hall, a 21st century world-class transportation hub.
New York also is home to the nation’s largest offshore wind agreement, announced in July 2019, committed to generating nearly 1,700 megawatts of offshore wind—key to reaching the state’s goal of 100% renewable by 2040 and expected to create $3.2 billion in economic activity and more than 1,600 jobs. And our New NY Broadband Program is bringing high-speed broadband access to all corners of the state—giving all New Yorkers access to the innovation economy.
