The Metropolitan Transportation Authority must pay more than an additional $55 million to the owners of land it acquired through eminent domain to build the Fulton Street Transit Center, which is under construction in lower Manhattan.

A unanimous panel of the Appellate Division, First Department, ruled yesterday in In re Metropolitan Transportation Authority, etc., 401185/08, 401188/08 and 401192/08, that the MTA had underpaid Collegiate Church and an affiliated joint venture and DLR Properties for the land.

Freedman (See Profile) and Sheila Abdus-Salaam (See Profile).
