FINANCIAL DISTRICT — More than four years after Hurricane Sandy floodwaters rushed the South Ferry station, the subway stop is moving toward a June reopening, MTA officials said.
The station, which had launched in 2009 after a $545 million renovation, has been shuttered since Sandy inundated the stop with 15 million gallons of corrosive salt water, sewage and debris, causing extensive damage.
The MTA reopened the Old South Ferry Station, the one in use before the 2009 launch, in 2013 to ensure 1 train riders could get to and and from Lower Manhattan's ferry terminal.
Repairs are costing $344 million in federal funds, the MTA said.
NY1 first reported the relaunch.
