I am thrilled that the Port Authority has given such a huge vote of confidence in the future of Lower Manhattan. The agreement reached today is a historic
achievement that will bring us one step closer to fulfilling our long-held vision of rebuilding the heart of the Downtown business district, which is why I have been
urging the Port Authority to approve the financing of this project. The opening of the 9/11 Memorial and Museum is bringing record numbers of visitors to this
area and it is now more vital than ever that we complete the full build-out of the World Trade Center site. My Lower Manhattan neighbors have been through so
much, enduring first the tragedy of 9/11 followed by more than a decade of rebuilding. Residents of our community are looking forward to seeing this area fully
rebuilt.
