In Queens, there’s a 3.5-mile stretch of abandoned railway that once ferried people to the Rockaway Beach peninsula. It has sat idle for nearly 60 years, mostly as a dangerous dumping ground—until now.
Trust for Public Land is working alongside local residents, community partners, the City of New York, and organizations like Friends of the QueensWay to transform this forgotten space into the QueensWay: a 47-acre green corridor that will connect neighborhoods, expand access to the outdoors, and bring vital green space to Central Queens.
Join us for the QueensWay 5K and be part of the movement to bring this vision to life. Stick around after the run for a lively finish line festival featuring local community partners, music, food, and more!
