If you are not going to add capacity do not spend the money just make Penn look nicer. Save the money and build a really nice homeless shelter. Move the homeless from in and around Penn there. People who use the station want to remove the homeless in the station and the herion addicts outside the station. That's what people who use the station really want. Not billions in skylights. The city might actually help people who need help in the process.

Besides the city just spent billions making it nicer already. The last thing people want is years of additional construction. Again if it was going to increase capacity especially from NJ which is needed, it is the only way its worth it to spend billions.
