“Building on the proven model of linear parks, our $35 million investment vision for the QueensWay will enhance quality of life, improve air quality and kick-start local small businesses,” -Eric Adams

-so does queens link. Queenslink not only incorporates greenspace but a transit line that will advance transit equity for queens residents, decrease car dependence, traffic congestion, and vehicle emissions by bringing new transit options (47,000 rides are projected to use it daily) , resolve the congo-line that happens at forest hills, and increase connectivity to the rockaways and jamaica wildlife refuge. also, multiple studies show that transit-oriented development positively correlates with real estate development and prices.

simply put, queens link is in every way a better urban development project than Queensway.
