The long anticipated Second Avenue subway line has hit more bumps along the road. It has been released that the project will have an increased budget forecast due to the increase of New York City real estate prices. The revised estimate of the project will be around $350 million if completed on schedule. THE MTA must also purchase five Upper East Side buildings to be removed for utilities and station entrances. The first phase of the project will be built from 96th Street to 63rd.
