The six-lane Van Wyck Expressway (VWE) was envisioned to help carry passengers quickly from the newly constructed Idlewild Airport (present-day John F. Kennedy International Airport [JFK Airport]) to Midtown Manhattan. In 1945, the City of New York developed a plan to expand the then-existing Van Wyck Boulevard into an expressway. The City of New York acquired the necessary land in 1946 and construction began in 1948, lasting until 1953. The Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) bridges for Jamaica Station, which were originally constructed in 1910, were reconstructed in 1950 to accommodate the widened roadway. The designation of the VWE as an interstate highway started with the northern sections of the roadway between the Whitestone Expressway and Kew Gardens Interchange (KGI) in the 1960s. By 1970, the entire expressway was a fully designated interstate: I-678 (the VWE). In 1998, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) began work on AirTrain JFK, an elevated automated guideway transit system linking downtown Jamaica to JFK Airport. AirTrain JFK utilizes the middle of the VWE roadway to create an unimpeded link, connecting two major transportation hubs in Queens.

  • Carpenters and Allies Protest Across U.S. and Canada Against Costly Epidemic of Construction Industry Tax Fraud
    United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America (UBC) Matt Capece Special Representative to the General President For Media Inquiries: Justin Weidner [email protected] For immediate release – April 16, 2019 Carpenters and Allies Protest Across U.S. and Canada Against Costly Epidemic of Construction Industry Tax Fraud Washington, D.C. – Regional councils affiliated with the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America (UBC) held over 100 events in the U.S. and Canada April 13 – 15, protesting against the costly epidemic of construction industry tax fraud. “But this isn’t just a problem for the construction industry,” said Frank Spencer, General Vice President of the UBC. “We’re exposing the growing problem of fraud in our industry because it impacts everyone.” The UBC’s best estimate, based on studies done at the state level, is that the underground economy (which includes the amount of wages paid to workers off the books) in the construction industry amounts to some $148 billion in the U.S. The lost state and federal income and employment taxes add up to $2.6 billion. According to Statistics Canada, the residential construction industry is the largest contributor to the underground economy there, accounting for just over a quarter of the total, or $13.7 billion. “During our Tax Fraud Days of Action, thousands of carpenters were joined by allies and elected officials,” said Spencer. “We all spoke in a unified voice to declare that basic employment and tax laws need to be enforced for the welfare of workers, responsible employers and all taxpayers.” “I’m sure most of us would prefer to see missing tax revenues properly collected and put to work building better roads, bridges and schools,” Spencer said.
