Exactly one day after the terms of Apple's rental deal for its new Grand Central Terminal retail store became public, New York State investigators are looking into whether the Metropolitan Transit Authority gave "overly generous terms" to Apple for the space. The New York Post reports that the state comptroller is investigating the terms of Apple's lease and other facets of the MTA's business dealings
"The article in the New York Post about the MTA's contract with Apple in Grand Central Terminal is a cause for concern," comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said. "This is a prime property, and I intend to make sure that the MTA hasn't given away the store."
