State Senator John Liu recently announced plans for the Flushing Skypark, an ambitious project to enhance public infrastructure and promote access to the waterfront in Queens. The development comes alongside a proposed Metropolitain Park casino project, which aims to revitalize the area around Citi Field. The plan includes a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge inspired by Manhattan's High Line, connecting Downtown Flushing with Willets Point. Support from Mets owner Steve Cohen and Hard Rock International indicates a commitment to securing the necessary approvals and funding for this major investment in Queens.
The Flushing community has long aspired to have greater access to our waterfront and the other side of Flushing Creek, Liu said.
This ambitious park project is considered a home run for Queens, emphasizing the need for improved public infrastructure.
Liu unveiled the big plan for the Flushing Skypark, aiming to revitalize the waterfront and connect neighborhoods separated by Flushing Creek.
The agreement formalizes their commitment to secure necessary regulatory approvals and funding for the completion of the Flushing Skypark project.
