Designed subway caverns!

The tunnels for 2nd Ave Subwaynhave been underground since the seventies connecting 96th, 110th, 116th and 125th. Caverns (or platforms) must be built, utilities & track need to be llaid and connected to caverns(which must be built out).

There was money for all of this, should have been included in the 96th street opening. Was in the design team before AECOM bought out all of the small pure engineering firms.

MTA is supposed to publish all costs due to usi g taxpayer money, but politicians do not hold them accountable neither do taxpayers.

I applaud the NYPost, when they want to report for the people they step it up. Many of my friends are gone, but they all said if you want to know what’s going on in NYC, ya gotta read the post.

Unions have less power than overpaid, rogue contractors paying leads $400K, no one cares if they finish design in time without error.

The best and compliant contractors are never hired anymore. Rogue contractors come here for the money, leave without work completed. When we worked, people high up in the the MTA when asked who was the client during a Project Managent training exercise had no clue! It was unbelievable.

A contractor wanted to hire me, a Hindu male was hired, she wanted me to sue. Perhaps I should have, but finding a good lawyer at the time was not happening.

I have many stories re: refusing to hire quality people to do the design , engineering and construction for MTA. It’s gotta be a mess now!
