This plot was to have been a 17 story hotel, though as with many sites there was either a stop work order, or the deal fell through completely.

I feel how this section of Long Island City is on the brink of blasting off on the super sonic gentrification rocket, as the LIC BID expanded into this area, and the building pace will increase significantly by Spring 2025. Just a hunch. Of all things, there's a new Starbucks on the strip, across Queens Blvd from this site. The Starbucks is the catalyst...

This photo was taken on July 30, 2022. I had just past my 1-year anniversary off cigarettes, in addition it was also my 6th month alcohol free. Beginning of great stuff.

I had quit each of those vices as a gift to myself for my 60th Birthday, which had been on August 16, 2022. After I had taken this photo, I proceeded to take this amazingly long walk through Long Island City into Sunnyside. I remember the day exactly, as I'd taken so many amazing photos
