The plan is to renovate the abandoned Old Putnam Railroad and its four station, which used to serve as a vital connection but caused neighborhoods to be disconnected back in 1943.
The state and the city want to put purpose back into it. Senator Schumer stated that it "Could unite over 3 miles of walking and biking here in South Yonkers taking you right into the gateway of Van Cortland Park from Getty Square." That is why the Senator is aiming to get the final funding of over $5 million to push the project forward.
Officials have stated that the project will not just cover up an eyesore but also improve quality of life in all aspects.
