What's up with the former parking lot?

I did a bit of nosing around online and found this.

“We have a unique opportunity to create something special right in the center of Manhattan: a destination that preserves the Fashion District's natural energy and our area's history; creates a public park that is a magnet for New Yorkers and visitors; and innovatively develops the area to support the space's activities without burdening the taxpayer. We hope this landscape design competition will help jump-start those plans.”

“FashionForward Park can become the center of New York City’s Fashion District through the creation of world-class open spaces and parks,” said Dan Doctoroff, the Deputy Mayor for Economic Development. “The designs presented at this exhibit provide the vision for achieving this opportunity.”
