Dear PlanNYC Users:
Thank you for visiting PlanNYC.
As of July 7, 2010, we have suspended daily news updating on this website, and will not be adding new developments or policy and legislative debates.
PlanNYC, a student-run website based at NYU’s Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy, has proudly served New Yorkers for five years. During that time, the growth of online information on land use and development issues, along with advances in technology such as RSS feeds and news alerts, have created many opportunities for New Yorkers to stay informed about housing and land use debates in the City. As a result, the daily news updating on this site has become less unique and less critical to our users.
We are pleased to keep the existing PlanNYC content online as a resource; all content on the site is current of July 6, 2010, but will not be updated after that date.
We hope you continue to use the data and research available at the Furman Center (which you can find at www.furmancenter.org), and we welcome your ideas and suggestions for how we can continue to provide objective information and analysis about land use and housing policy debates in New York City.
For additional information or questions, please email furmancenter@nyu.edu.

An analysis of the various challenges facing the 2nd Avenue Subway construction concluded that the completion date for phase one of the project should be extended to December 2016, and possibly until the summer of 2017. The targeted completion date for phase one was previously intended to be June of 2015. This initial stage will constitute an extension of the Q train from the 57th Street and 7th Avenue station to new stations along 2nd Avenue at 96th, 86th and 72nd Streets. The total expected budget for the complete project is now $4.4 billion, a slight increase from earlier projections of $4.3 billion.
