South Ferry not back at least a year

The word is that the South Ferry Station New York, NY of the #1 train, and the adjoining Whitehall Station of the RR line, and the link to the RR tunnel to Brooklyn, will not be back for at least a year. That is a pretty long time after Sandy, Hurricane Sandy. This thing was so badly flooded that the repairs will cost on the order of $600 billion. Will we ever do it?
