Cuomo delivers $154 million in federal Sandy aid

Published



NEW YORK (AP) — Gov. Andrew Cuomo delivered the first federal aid since Superstorm Sandy hit New York — more than $114 million for New York University Langone Medical Center and $40 million to help remove debris on Long Island.

Cuomo visited the 1,000-bed hospital on Manhattan’s East Side on Sunday. It was flooded during the late October storm and lost power, and more than 300 patients had to be evacuated. Full services at the hospital will not reopen until January.
