"For too long, Atlantic Avenue has been overlooked while opportunity passed our community by. Revive Atlantic 2.0 changes that. We are restoring transit access, empowering small businesses, beautifying our streets and filling this corridor with culture, energy and economic opportunity."
"Rajkumar is calling upon NYC Department of Transportation and the New York State Department of Transportation to commit capital dollars and design expertise for sidewalk reconstruction, pedestrian safety redesign, lighting upgrades and traffic-calming infrastructure."
Assembly Member Jenifer Rajkumar announced Revive Atlantic 2.0, a comprehensive plan to revitalize Atlantic Avenue in south Queens. The initiative focuses on investing in local businesses, beautifying sidewalks, and reopening the Woodhaven Long Island Railroad stop to increase foot traffic. Rajkumar will meet with community stakeholders and city agencies to secure resources for this important commercial corridor spanning from Eldert Lane to 111th Street across Woodhaven, Richmond Hill, and Ozone Park. The plan seeks parity with better-resourced areas like Brooklyn Bridge Park. Rajkumar is already in discussions with city agencies and anticipates support from Mayor Zohran Mamdani's administration, given its commitment to transit improvements and walkability projects.
