Is it big enough?

You have to worry about room for the airplanes to descend/etc.

I think they should just build an island like taiwan or whatever.

Sorry, but this is a terrible idea.

The Singapore Airport is far from populated areas and buildings. You put a massive airport in the center of a city - destroying a national park in the process - and create nothing but noise and pollution, for what? To save 1-2 hours travel time?

I got a better idea, how about dedicated trains to the airports surrounding New York.


btw, Singapore is a good civic model, didn't you know? It is one of the most efficiently built cities on the planet.

An island is the way to go.

People need green areas, trees, flowers, bushes, birdies etc. This is why the richest people who work in New York communte in from Long Island and Connecticut. Being totally encased in concrete is depressing.

It is a terrible idea. Like there isn't enough congestion in the area that every single ****ing flight to Newark, JFK, and LaGuardia is delayed because of too many planes in the air

New York City doesn’t.

WTF is this bullshit? When did Queens not become part of NYC?

Its not the runway space I am worried about, it is the air corridors.

Thats why we need one of these...

The seven o'clock entrance goes out into the New York Harbor and the one o'clock entrance looks out itno a long approach corridor along the East River. If that is too long, rotate it so you have a Hudson and East River corridor, whatever. The mountain is replaced by the Manhattan city scape. Problem solved.
