🎃 “Ghosts, Gridlock & Gateway Tunnel Ghouls” – October 2025 BOMA-NY Transportation Report

Welcome to the spooky season, where rats are not in costume, but Halloween street shut downs, unpaid air traffic controllers, and Second Avenue Subway suspense are very real.

This month’s BOMA-NY Transportation Report reads like a haunted house walkthrough for NYC infrastructure: you think it’s under control
 until you open the next corridor and find a federal shutdown, stalled transit funding, and the shadow of a rail project that’s been “almost shovel ready” for 20 years.

Halloween may bring ghosts and ghouls, but what really haunts property managers this month? The threats of disruption to:

  • 🚇 Subway construction (2nd Avenue extension, used as a pawn in this shut down match),
  • 🚄 Gateway Tunnel federal funding (long delayed and now threatened by the White House),
  • đŸ›« Airport operations (air traffic controllers are working unpaid during the shutdown),
  • 🚙 Congestion pricing  (….actually, this is the first report in a long time not to report on this topic! But like the undead, it will reemerge.)

This report doesn’t just bring updates. It brings facts, sourced news, a few skeleton jokes, and aims to serve property managers who take care of their buildings 365-days-a-year. (Pests don’t take holidays, and neither do we.)
