Please use the map below to provide any feedback, concerns, or suggestions you have regarding the Queens Waterfront Greenway. Please be as specific as possible.
This corridor will close gaps in pedestrian and cycling routes from Long Island City and Astoria to East Elmhurst and College Point, Queens. Running parallel to the Long Island Sound, this route will improve transportation options throughout New York City's most diverse borough and enhance park access for Queens neighborhoods with limited green space. Connecting these neighborhoods with an active transportation network will particularly benefit Queens residents living within much of the planning area who are underserved by public transit access.

This stretch of Newtown is a very wide one-way. Some of this space could be better used for an extension of the sidewalk into a plaza or a bike lane.
Intersection geometry creates long crossings, could be improved by pedestrian bump-outs on the north and south corners.
Sharp turn by park creates low visibility for northbound traffic. High volume intersection for pedestrians and bikers and main access point for beach/cove. Needs a traffic signal.
Could we please have a stop light
very narrow path with the fence low and a lot of blind spots for oncoming traffic
Restore access to the airport!! From this location it is a short walk to Terminal C and would benefit workers and local residents.
Throughout the corridor, protecting the bike lanes should be a high priority. It has been my experience in the area that whatever is possible, drivers will do. The NYPD seems unwilling or unable to enforce this, but it is a problem we can engineer our way out of. Bring out the jersey barriers!
Cars continually park in green space on this path, putting pedestrians and cyclists at risk.
Need to formalize this connection between Seaver and Promenade. There is a fence here mostly blocking access. Need to connect the promenade better to those walking and biking to points south like the ballpark, Roosevelt Ave bridge, and flushing meadows.
Need to add solid curb cuts for wheeled device, bicycle and pedestrian connection between promenade down through parking lots to Seaver way.
Do you want to show us the area in StreetView before submitting?
