Astoria Mountain being flattened

We have word from George the Atheist that the Berrian Blvd landfill which was proposed to become a park is in the process of being denuded of trees and bulldozed.

They actually started this months ago.

To those who claimed it was a horrible contaminated trash landfill... where's the trash? Oh that's right - it was nothing but rock and dirt from the lincoln tunnel.

Just the port authority slaughtering trees, nothing to see here...

Wait till they find Luyster Creek under it. They put that mountain there because the ground was like quicksand - everything they put in there sank.

Now the big question is how Astoria will react to the airport noise and how will the airport react to being downwind from the Astoria sewage plant.

Probably flattening it for more LaGuardia Airport parking. Considering the amount of space available here, I would like to see it reserved for a right-of-way that can be used by the N train in reaching the airport.

The smart ones have already moved out of Astoria four decades ago.
The huge Greek exodus founded St. Nicholas Orthodox Church on Northern Boulevard in Auburndale.
You Astoria die hards who hung in will have to learn to live with worsening conditions.
The boat has left and you have missed it.

Wah! Wah! Wah!
WTF does the rest of Queens, NYC, or America care if
a mountain of landfill gets denuded or leveled?
Get some perspective.
There are far bigger issues.

LOL!
Luyster Creek?
A piece of trivia most likely gleaned from the musty archives of GAHS.

Stop making a mountain out of a Mole hill.
Unless, there will be no park here, and a garbage transfer facility might be in the works.
