Power 100: N – Z
Philip Norcross
Law firm Parker McCay and lobbying firm Optimus Partners might represent the epitome of the politically connected firms – if the news headlines and government watchdogs are to be believed. Philip, an executive at both, is the nexus of those connections. That became evident in 2019, when activists and a task force put together by the Murphy administration outlined Optimus’ and Parker McCay’s alleged influence over the creation of the 2013 tax break program, and in helping businesses win lucrative incentive awards. Philip is the brother of both George Norcross, the South Jersey political kingmaker, and Donald Norcross, a U.S. congressman representing the First Congressional District. With the creation of a new massive tax break legislation, Trenton insiders have been speculating about just what kind of role Philip could play in helping businesses win incentives.

NJ Burkett has more on the shortage of COVID vaccine doses in New York City.
The plan is to build the new terminal on the existing terminal without taking it out of service, and renaming it the Midtown Bus Terminal.
From 2013 until 2018, the Port Authority sought out proposals to replace the existing building before settling on the Build-in-Place Alternative.
It s an ambitious plan that will take years to complete and cost billions of dollars to construct, with the replacement terminal anticipated to be completed by 2030. From day one, the construction of a new Port Authority Bus Terminal that meets the needs of New Jersey s commuters and delivers a 21st century, world-class facility has been a top priority for my Administration, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said. The release of this plan is a concrete step toward our goal to expand bus capacity, ease the stress of our commuters, and provide reliable transportation infrastructure that will carry our regional economy forward
