“At a crucial time in New York’s recovery that requires bold, determined leadership, the Building Congress applauds Sarah Feinberg’s historic nomination to be the first woman to lead the Metropolitan Transportation Authority," said Carlo A. Scissura, President and CEO of the New York Building Congress. "Janno Lieber, in his new role as chief executive officer, will build on the historic change he has helped bring to the MTA over the last four years — turning proposals long thought to be a dream into game-changing realities that allow all New Yorkers to thrive. Together, they will lead the MTA into this next vital chapter of rebuilding Pennsylvania Station, extending the Second Avenue Subway and creating a mass transit system that meets the needs of today and tomorrow. We also look forward to working with Pat Foye in his new capacity at Empire State Development, where he will undoubtedly play a key role in rebuilding New York’s infrastructure and getting our economy moving again.”
