One of the biggest complain for NYC government in the late 90s is that EWR gets "favored" treatment over JFK, and they are all run by the same Port Authority!!! It's not until NYC Representatives threaten to force Port Authority to pay up on back-rent up to hundreds of millions of dollars did the Port Authority decided to "invest and improve" JFK.
