The PANYNJ has controlled this property since 1931 via legislation enacted concerning Bridge and Tunnel Unifications, P.L.1931, c.4; c. Legislative Committee notes indicate vesting of jurisdiction over the property with the PANYNJ in 1931, and a property map shows the area under PANYNJ jurisdiction as early as 1965; however, there is no evidence that a deed was ever recorded conferring title to the PANYNJ; d. The PANYNJ has exercised control over the Holland Tunnel Service Garage since its construction, and has assumed the payment of the original debt that was incurred at the time the facility was constructed in 1931; e. Since 1931, the State has not exercised any indicia of ownership or control over the Holland Tunnel Service Garage and since that time has acted as if the PANYNJ has been the property owner; f.
