Governor Cuomo Wants to Tear Down the Javits Center

After six years of detailed renovations of the Jacob K. Javits Center, New York Governor has proposed razing it and turning it over to development of other commercial and residential property. The new convention center would be built in Jamaica, Queens.

Looks like LIGHTFAIR is staying in Philadelphia, at least for 2013, and now possibly beyond that.

The New York Times has the story here.
