Trump Administration Proposes Renaming New York's Penn Station Amid $8 Billion Overhaul
The Trump administration has proposed renaming New York's Penn Station as part of an $8 billion renovation of the busy Manhattan transit hub. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy requested congressional funding for the project but did not specify a new name. Duffy and Trump supporters have expressed openness to naming it after President Trump, though Trump has said the idea was not initiated by him. The proposal has faced criticism from local leaders and commuter groups, while Amtrak oversees the station's redesign.
