Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates the terminal, unveiled the plan on Thursday
It would include up to four new high-rise towers, proceeds from selling the rights to their development used to partially fund the project
The terminal, built in 1950, is both the largest bus station in the nation and the busiest in the world
What makes Pittsburgh such an attractive movie location?
Tax credits for film companies are just the beginning, says Dawn Keezer, director of the Pittsburgh Film Office.
“We have such a diversity of locations. Pittsburgh can look like any place in the world,” she says. “The only things we don’t have are a beach and a desert.
“We do New York better than New York,” she says. “We’ve been San Francisco, Paris, Ukraine and Atlanta.”
There’s the beauty of the city viewed from the West End Overlook or Mt. Washington and downtown’s blend of modern and historical architecture, she says. Drive for an hour and you have mountains, small towns, farmland and other attractive settings.
