Guide to cemeteries in QueensGet rid of Aqueduct and turn it into a park, then we can connect the Queensway to it and it'll connect to two great parks. Get rid of that awful casino (if you can call it that) as well. Thats a lot of land sitting most of the year unused and it would take 10x that much to turn it into anything better then Saratoga or Belmont.
Pol Wants to Use $30 Million for Upgrades at the Aqueduct RacetrackI'm still divided on this. I lived in Ozone Park for a number of years in the 90's, it's a great working class neighborhood and I'm glad it's still under the radar. It's great that they want to keep it a lower scale working class neighborhood but the reality is our city needs more housing and I know first hand that a lot of the houses in Ozone Park have been illegally converted to multi units or have illegal basement apartments. It has the A express, has tons of buses and easy access to the airport so naturally it's very in demand by working people who need reliable commuting in a decent area. Part of me thinks this will just make the situation worse, and with the inevitable gentrification of Cypress Hills/East New York the housing situation will only get worse for working people. The other side is developers left to their own devices will cram this neighborhood full of Fedders specials like Corona or Elmhurst. I still remember John Gotti's fourth of July block parties on 101st. ave. It was a different city back then and we repped it with pride.
Looking at the Quiet Rezoning of Ozone ParkI do not live in Woodhaven any more but I did from 1951 to 1992. But I came across your website. I too was involved with many so called good for the public projects which myself was in opposition to on L.I. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get your neighbors together and hire an attorney. This will show you mean business and are serious. Have the attorney send a registered letter stating your groups opposition to this projects. 1) Safety concerns, 2) Quality of life issues, 3) Property values, etc. State in the letter if they proceed with this project the neighbors of your group will file an article 78 proceeding to show cause to stop it. Also you might be able to tie up this project for years and years in court. I am pretty sure that some of the neighbor;s yards have encroachments into the proposed property. You might be able to claim adverse prosession if you have been using that property for over 10 years. You might now be able to own it. That is why it is important that your group hire an attorney. Good luck..
