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.

Unsafe to walk or bike from the flushing bay promenade to citifield. Would love to see a safe bike route created between the two and CURB CUTS from the promenade down to car level. Often, those on bicycle must endure a heavy pound taking their bike down from the greenway to the car level
There is VERY LITTLE public space in Downtown Flushing. We need to see more public plazas that connect with (newly created) waterfront greenways. Downtown flushing is densely populated and would benefit greatly from these kinds of spaces
there is garbage, water pooling and rubble routinely on the path between the flushing bay promenade and the northern boulevard bridge. the path needs to be better maintained for those who wish to use it if not possible, how can we ensure it will remain clear through other forms of improvement and maintenance
The Northern boulevard bridge provides no access and NO DIGNITY to the flushing bay waterfront promenade / citifield for the communities in flushing not using cars. The Pulaski Bridge provides a great example of what needs to be done - provide a dedicated, separated pathway for wheeled active mobility tools like bikes, and keep the sidewalk dedicated to pedestrians
Need a North / South bike path connecting the North greenway with the Vanderbilt Motor Parkway. Utopia Parkway would be an ideal connector since it has schools and other communal spaces that would benefit having additional ways to access greenspace. A few parts are tight - could we consider traffic calming if dedicated separate bikeways become less feasible? Other routes possible? Clearview expressway can't be the only option
A ferry from here to the Bronx directly
A way to cross from here to the Bronx right across the water. Could be ferry or some other form.
please - more connected and protected bike lanes. thanks - John Frisbie, Woodside
Are there any plans to connect the Flushing and Astoria greenways?
This area is a nightmare for cyclists heading to and from Pulaski. We need bike stop lights, clear directional signs for cyclists, and the road needs to be paved over.
