At noon, Steve Cohen, the owner of the New York Mets, along with community leaders in Queens, will introduce a plan to convert unused parking lots into a comprehensive sports and entertainment park. The ambitious Metropolitan Park project, worth 8 million dollars, aims to transform 20 acres adjacent to City Field into a spacious park area, while an additional five acres will be designated for community athletic fields and playgrounds.
Furthermore, the plan includes the creation of an entertainment complex featuring a Hard Rock Hotel, a live music venue, and gaming facilities. To ensure convenient access, visitors will have the option of utilizing a renovated mass transit station, bike paths, or parking facilities..
