The Greenstreets program converts paved, vacant traffic islands, and medians into green spaces filled with trees, shrubs, and groundcover in an effort to capture stormwater.

 

The program is a part of the NYC Green Infrastructure Plan. All funding for Greenstreet construction under this plan is administered by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).

Construction workers wear neon colors, especially neon yellow (safety yellow) and fluorescent orange (safety orange), to ensure they are highly visible on the job site. These colors stand out against the typical backgrounds found in construction areas, such as earth tones and urban landscapes, significantly reducing the risk of accidents by alerting drivers and machine operators to their presence.

Yesterday I took some Amazon returns up to Staples, only to learn how that branch had just recently shuttered for good. Wait a second, not another apartment building.? LOL. Yep. And this one will be massive. Maybe it will have a Whole Foods, which has yet to invade Astoria. This plot it situated right next to Grand Central Parkway, so that would be perfect for them. And this plot is also directly adjacent to yet another residential construction site. Ohemgee. BBO aka Building Boom Overkill OVERKILL. Make it stop! Switch it off! That's it, Astoria is cooked

 

Year Built: 1961

Recent Acquisition Price: $33,100,000

The adjacent plot had been $11 million.

History of the site:

After 40 years in business the Neptune Diner located in Astoria, Queens, NYC served its last meal on Sunday, July 29. 2024. The owners claimed they were not given a chance to renew their lease, because the property will soon be turned into a residential building.

 

Since 1983, The Katsihtis brothers have owned the building on Astoria Boulevard but not the land, which was sold in 2018 for over $10 million.

 

The brothers also had a 35-year lease which expired in 2019. But since then, they were not able to come to a long-term agreement with the landlord.

--

But that's what Long Island City/Astoria needs is another apartment building. It's already so overbuilt, it's ridiculous. Yet they keep tearing them down and building new ones, many of which are luxury rentals. The neighborhood is losing its character to steel and glass.

Overview of 7 Train Upgrades in Queens

 

The 7 train line, which connects Flushing to Midtown Manhattan, is undergoing significant upgrades in Queens, including at the 33rd Street–Rawson Street station. These improvements are part of a broader initiative to enhance the subway system's infrastructure and accessibility.

 

Key Upgrades at 33rd Street–Rawson Street Station

 

Accessibility Improvements

 

ADA Compliance:

The station is currently undergoing renovations to become ADA-accessible. This includes the installation of elevators, which is part of a larger $6 billion investment in accessibility across the subway system.

 

Elevator Installation:

The contract for adding two elevators at the station was awarded in December 2023, with work expected to improve access for all riders.

 

Structural Enhancements

Temporary Platforms: To accommodate construction, temporary platforms have been set up at the 33rd Street–Rawson Street station, along with other nearby stations.

 

Service Changes:

As part of the ongoing upgrades, Manhattan-bound 7 trains are skipping the 69th and 52nd Street stations through early 2026. Riders are advised to use nearby stations like 74th Street–Broadway and 61st Street–Woodside during this period.

 

Timeline and Impact

 

Construction Duration:

The upgrades are expected to continue into 2026, with various phases of work being coordinated to minimize disruptions.

 

Customer Experience:

These improvements aim to enhance the overall customer experience by providing better access, improved safety, and modernized facilities throughout the 7 train line.

These upgrades are crucial for ensuring that the subway system meets the needs of all New Yorker's, particularly those requiring accessible transit options.

Quercus alba, or white oak, is a large, long-lived tree native to eastern and central North America. It can grow over 100 feet tall and 38–50 inches in diameter, with a wide, irregular crown and horizontal branches. White oak leaves are 5–9 inches long and 2–4 inches wide, with a bright green upper surface and a whitened lower surface. The bark is whitish or light gray, and can be scaly, ridged, or furrowed. In the fall, the leaves turn wine red.

Resonant is defined as reverberating or echoing sounds

--

Completed in 1917, the Queens Blvd viaduct runs for an eighth of a mile along the center of Queens Boulevard between 32nd Pl. and 47th Street. Its most defining feature is the hundreds of arches with a mysterious resonance that changes from the center of each arch to their edges; at points the echoes overlap, propelling the resonance back and forth between each arch — something that can only be experienced to believe. This Resonant Space is a NYC treasure.

I never understood this pricey restaurant situated in the middle of Central Park, NYC. Here people sip expensive cocktails along the water's edge or dine on the finest cuisine; host elaborate Page Six worthy weddings with resplendent receptions or attend art exhibits, all the while, steps away, in the adjacent woodland known as The Rambles, men are having anonymous sex with each other. It's all so bizarre and awesome.
