Reminder: QueensWay Workshop to Be Held Tonight

Tonight is the second of three QueensWay workshops that will be held this month to educate Forest Hills residents on the upcoming park project.

The meeting will run from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Metropolitan Expeditionary Learning School, located at 91-30 Metropolitan Ave. in Forest Hills.

There will be another meeting to discuss the park proposal tomorrow at the Ozone Park Senior Center, located at 103-02 101st Ave, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

The QueensWay project involves transforming 3.5 miles of abandoned railroad into a 55-acre park that would provide space for biking, walking and jogging, but also public art, food events and recreational activities, such as yoga.

During the workshops, attendees will be able to share ideas for the park and propose recreational and educational opportunities for the site.

Planning consultants for the QueensWay – WXY Architecture + Urban Design and Hester Street Collaborative – will attend the workshops.

To RSVP, call Shelma Jun at 212-431-6780, ext. 110 or email shelma@hesterst.org.
