A lot in Chelsea around the corner from the High Line will be used to
screen trucks heading to the World Trade Center for bombs,
DNAinfo reported. Officials said the site between West 29th and West
30th streets, from 11th to 12th avenues, is convenient for that
purpose due to its proximity to the West Side Highway. The trucks,
most of which will be coming from the George Washington Bridge, will
be inspected and sniffed by a canine unit before continuing along
their way to the World Trade Center. The Port Authority of New York
& New Jersey is leasing the space from Georgetown Properties. The
property was initially planned for the abandoned Trans-Hudson Rail
Tunnel project. [DNAinfo]
