New Queens park to feature giant dragon

Dragons rarely appear on this page but we’ll make room for this 30-footer at The Baseline, a new, more than one-acre park under the 59th Street Bridge ramps on the Queens side.
The park to open next year lies between two new Long Island City apartment towers from a joint venture of Fetner Properties and Lions Group.
The Bold’s 164 units including 50 affordable ones are fully rented. Leasing has started at sister building The Italic, which has 363 units of which 109 are designated as affordable, just began leasing.
The 50-story tower has amenities including a state-of-the-art fitness center and rooftop terrace.
In addition to the presumably friendly dragon, the park designed by Studio V and LVF Landscape Architects will boast children’s playgrounds, a dog run, public seating, extensive plantings and public art space. It’s funded by $5.5 million from the developers and a $2.4 million grant awarded by Gov. Kathy Hochul.
