Thanks to Media Goon for sending this one my way. There’s been so little happening in Flushing that I’m close to taking pics of my 1982 Mets calendar just to keep the blog alive.
The Daily News tells us of some progress being made in Willets Point.
Hopefully that area will become a nice vibrant mixed use area. People seemed to like McFadden’s, and more bars would make for a nice experience. Sitting that close to an airport and the 7, it seems a great place for a hotel. Maybe some apartments (although I’d rather see an old style neighborhood with street level stores with one or two levels of apartments above as opposed to the typical Queens Crap type condos).
Who knows, maybe even an arena for a hockey team (as long as taxpayers don’t foot the bill).
