None of which apparently was true.Mr Dermody (the LIRR President) spoke at a NRHS-LIST meeting I went to last month, and the topic of PD came up. He made it very clear that "within days" of the closure of PD, the stairways would be ripped off the tower to prevent tresspassing. The tower would probably remain until some time in June when they would have removed whatever they had stored downstairs out. At that point, if nothing materialized with the Village of Patchogue, or that Bethpage group he mentioned (the only two groups mentioned at all, and he was not optomistic about either), that in all likeliness PD would be razed in June some time. He was very clear on the subject.
