Efforts Resume to Advance Sunnyside Yard Affordable Housing Project In Sunnyside, Queens
New York City officials are again advancing plans for a large-scale development above Sunnyside Yard in Sunnyside, Queens following a recent meeting between Mayor Zohran Mamdani and President Donald Trump aimed at securing federal support for the project. The proposal centers on decking over the rail facility, a 180-acre rail yard used by Amtrak, the Long Island Rail Road, and New Jersey Transit. The site has long been identified by the city as one of the largest potential housing development opportunities in New York City.
