• Hunters Point South Plans For Queens West Megadevelopment Move Forward

  Last Wednesday the city held public hearings on three huge land-use plans, but only two of those were widely reported upon: the rezoning of the Lower East Side and the redevelopment of Willets Point. The third hearing concerned Hunters Point South (formerly known as "Queens West") and the development there of 5,000 units of housing, 60 percent of which, according to WNYC, would be set aside for residents who earn between $55,000 and $158,000 a year.

• Long Island City Artists Find a Place in the Sunset Park

  “The rents are certainly much more attractive than they are in Red Hook, Dumbo or Long Island City,” says Healy, who pays $1,000 a month for her work space. “An artists community is evolving here because artists enjoy being in quiet places, and there are no distractions here.”

• Long Island City Plans For Queens West Megadevelopment Move Forward

  The massive project is on the 24-acre Long Island City land where the Olympic Village would have been built if New York won its bid for the 2012 Olympics. When plans for Hunters Point South were first announced a couple years ago, the city said all of the housing would be set aside for middle-income earners, but it has since changed its vision for the site to allow for the construction of market-rate units.
