4th New York Airport?

Tom--great story.. The link is too long so for the full story go to Google and search "New York City 4th Airport". Kind of fits into the whole idea of MassPort buying ORH incorporating them with Hancom and Boston. Here are parts of the story.

Executives of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates the three airports — La Guardia, Kennedy International and Newark Liberty International — say they fear that the increasingly crowded airspace could crimp the region's economy, driving some business travelers and tourists to other cities. They are mulling a range of incremental improvements that would allow them to squeeze more planes and passengers through the airports they have.
But the Port Authority's chairman, Anthony R. Coscia, said he believed a bolder, more controversial solution would be necessary. The time has come, Mr. Coscia said, to start creating another major airport to serve the metropolitan area.......

Mitchell L. Moss, a professor of urban policy and planning at New York University, endorsed the idea of a fourth airport as "a wise strategy for the 21st century" and said he favored Stewart because of its size and location. Stewart "is especially well suited for air cargo," Mr. Moss said, because "it has better highway linkages than any existing airport to the Midwest and New England."

One of the possibilities mentioned in the story to be the 4th airport is Stewart International, an hour from New York City, who want to change the name to New York Hudson Valley International Airport sound familiar.
