197-A QUEENSBORO BRIDGE AREA COMMITTEE

Community Board 8 has developed a 197-a plan for the Andrew Haswell Green site. By creating new waterfront parks at the former heliport site, the city will bring much needed open space to our community. Phase I of the park has been completed. Planning for Phase II has been completed. The Pavilion area of Phase IIa is under construction. It is expected to open in spring 2017. Phase IIb is in the planning and engineering stage. EDC is letting an RFP for a construction manager for the project, which has an anticipated completion date of approximately 2020.

14 Honey Locust Park was vacated by DDC. Community Board 8 worked with Parks, DOT and DEP to restore the park.
