NEW YORK CITY TRANSIT interim president Sarah Feinberg, 42, turns her camera for a moment to show me how deserted the 30th floor of 2 Broadway is. “It’s myself, the guy who sits at the front and lets people through the locked door,” she narrates as she pans MTA headquarters. “A woman who basically runs the office is here some days. And then our NYPD liaison is here most days. And that’s it.” The NYCTA, whose very density has been blamed for New York City’s being the epicenter of the coronavirus, is being run from a ghost town.
She swivels back to her nondescript workspace: beige shades, a monitor behind her head, cherry-veneer cabinetry. Feinberg started in the office on March 2—five days before Governor Andrew Cuomo declared a state of emergency in New York—so there hasn’t been much time to decorate.
