New York City’s parks commissioner raised concerns over a proposed casino in Queens, warning that the development could disrupt local green spaces and community access. Officials highlighted potential conflicts between the project’s scale and existing parkland, particularly in an area already facing infrastructure pressures. The warning comes as city agencies review environmental and zoning impacts ahead of a major decision on the proposal. Critics argue the plan may prioritize commercial interests over public recreation needs in the borough.
