Strategic Policy Statement 2014 Melinda Katz
THE OFFICE OF THE QUEENS BOROUGH PRESIDENT Strategic Policy Statement 2014 Melinda Katz Queens Borough President The Borough of Queens is home to more than 2.3 million residents, representing more than 120 countries and speaking more than 135 languages1. The seamless knit that ties these distinct cultures and transforms them into shared communities is what defines the character of Queens. The Borough’s diverse population continues to steadily grow. Foreign-born residents now represent 48% of the Borough’s population2. Traditional immigrant gateways like Sunnyside, Woodside, Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Corona, and Flushing are now communities with the highest foreign-born population in the entire city3. Immigrant and Intercultural Services The immigrant population remains largely underserved. This is primarily due to linguistic and cultural barriers. Residents with limited English proficiency now represent 28% of the Borough4, indicating a need for a wide range of social service support and language access to City services. All services should be available in multiple languages, and outreach should be improved so that culturally sensitive programming can be made available. The Borough President is actively working with the Queens General Assembly, a working group organized by the Office of the Queens Borough President, to address many of these issues. Cultural Queens is amidst a cultural transformation. The Borough is home to some of the most iconic buildings and structures in the world, including the globally recognized Unisphere and New York State Pavilion. Areas like Astoria and Long Island City are establishing themselves as major cultural hubs. In early 2014, the New York City Council designated the area surrounding Kaufman Astoria Studios as the city’s first arts district through a City Council Proclamation The areas unique mix of adaptively reused residential, commercial, and manufacturing buildings serve as a catalyst for growth in culture and the arts. -
Heirport Eero Saarinen's Twa Terminal Has a New Neighbor That Embodies
136 I.D. November⁄December 2008 www.id-mag.com … crit…environment 137 tapas bars. Before jetBlue, no one had attempted a white-tablecloth restaurant at JFK since the reviewed by greg lindsay raymond loewy–designed coffee shop in saarin- en’s terminal. But as airport “dwell times” have soared since 9/11, sit-down meals have become Heirport viable again. rockwell’s personal contributions are a chan- delier of flat-screens floating above a grandstand eero saarinen’s TWA terminal has where idling departing passengers will be able to watch the eternal stream of new arrivals. rockwell went all the way back to william whyte’s pioneer- a new neighbor that embodies the ing studies of human traffic in public spaces to create the layout and placement of his grandstand, realities of 21st-century air travel. which doubles as a traffic funnel. once past the marketplace, the terminal is more prosaic—artfully, purposefully so. “everything is done with an eye toward usefulness,” hooper told me, like the special slurry of scuff-camouflaging terrazzo in the halls, or the virtually indestructible blue carpeting that just might outlast the terminal. the only razzle-dazzle is provided by workstations at each gate from which passengers will be able to order food for delivery—an eye-opening innovation with the potential to be a customer-service disaster at peak hours. But the most crucial feature of all, at least from the airline’s perspective, is one that will likely go unnoticed by most passengers. small closets stocked with cleaning supplies have been placed at each gate; the faster jetBlue can wipe down its JetBlue’s new JFK terminal planes, the faster it can reload and get them back in tries not to overshadow the air, saving money lost to delays and increasing the Eero Saarinen landmark out front. -
