There is a transforming of our neighborhood underway, but it’s no movie. Pictured is the construction of two future Marriott-affiliated hotels on the north side of the Long Island Expressway..The hotels join a number of homes on a crowded lot that originally included an A&P Supermarket which was later converted to the Cinema 5 movie theatre.
As reported by Liz Rhodes in the Queens Chronicle and elsewhere, the hotels will have a total of 292 rooms. But as readers of this blog know, those are not the only hotel rooms under construction in our community!
