As reported by Bloomberg, Paul, Weiss client Metropolitan Transportation Authority raised $1.06 billion by issuing Hudson Rail Yards Trust Obligations, Series 2016A, MTA's first issue of real estate-backed bonds. The securities will be repaid from revenues MTA receives from leases and sales of land in MTA's Hudson Yards development, a 26-acre mixed-use site on the West Side of Midtown Manhattan being developed into 14 million square feet of office, residential and retail space by a joint venture of affiliates of The Related Companies and Oxford Properties. The bond proceeds will be used to support the MTA's capital program.
