As Gov. Hochul moves ahead with a $50 million proposal to redesign Jamaica station, several LIRR riders are hoping upgrades will include measures to shield them from the elements by partially enclosing enclosing the outdoor station.

Hochul's office has offered few details of the redesign plan, other than to say it aims to improve passenger flow, reduce crowding and create better connections to the subway and JFK AirTrain.

The 113-year-old station was built outdoors because it served steam locomotives, according to an LIRR historian.
