Don't think it's competitive bidding since each station should have similar escalators, so one manufacturer should have the capacity to make the 3 of them for the same price. If you're getting them from 3 different manufacturers, the price very likely varies between them and you could've gotten more cost savings by ordering the 3 of them in bulk from the same manufacturer.

NYC and state politicians will change nothing that entices them to come up here in mass. All they'll do is complain about is how the federal government should help to fund housing/taking care of these economic migrants.

She was wearing weighted clothes and it was holding her down, so she needed to take them off to reach her full power.

There has to be more oversight and regulation on how contractors can spend their money working on public projects, this is a ridiculous waste of money spending so much on "consulting", overstaffing, and unnecessarily expensive add-ons that aren't the norm anywhere else.
