This skill is intended to provide facts about the proposed Brooklyn Queens Connector (BQX). Explosive housing and job growth occurring along the Brooklyn Queens waterfront are placing ever increasing demands on the area’s roads and public transit. The Brooklyn Queens Connector urban streetcar would tie together waterfront neighborhoods from Sunset Park in Brooklyn to Astoria in Queens. The new transit line would connect isolated neighborhoods to new job centers and open up opportunity for hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers.
