A Manhattan judge has rebuffed the Plaza Hotel’s attempt to move a public bicycle rack for New York City’s Citibike program away from its historic entrance.

Supreme Court Justice Cynthia Kern (See Profile) ruled on Monday in Board of Managers of The Plaza Condominium v. The New York City Department of Transportation, 101392/13, denied an Article 78 petition filed by the Plaza’s board of managers, saying the Department of Transportation’s decision to put the rack there was not arbitrary and capricious and complied with relevant environmental laws.
