    First Look at Moynihan Train Hall

    In this bonus episode of Infrastructured I visit Moynihan Train Hall, which is the new home for Amtrak and Long Island Railroad train departures and arrivals. Penn Station still exists across the street and people can still catch their trains from the sub-basement of Madison Square Garden, but Moynihan Train Hall is the new flagship hub.

    Prioritized Infrastructure and the “INVEST in America Act” (feat. Yonah Freemark)

    In this second episode of Infrastructured I interview Yonah Freemark about the now passed House of Representatives' "INVEST in America Act," which is a $494 Billion Transportation Re-Authorization Bill that will fund the transportation infrastructure of the United States over the next five years. We talk about the different parts of the bill, from Amtrak to addressing the Climate Crisis, and discuss the complicated history of transportation policies prioritizing highways and cars. But this must change. We need to prioritize passenger rail and public transit in this country and this discussion talks about how the INVEST Act begins to get us there.
