NEW YORK — There’s new momentum behind New York Mets owner Steve Cohen’s vision to transform the area around Citi Field in Queens.
Borough leaders rallied outside State Sen. Jessica Ramos’ office Monday and called on her to push legislation supporting the Metropolitan Park proposal, which includes a casino.
“This is a great project and Jessica we’re calling out to you. We love you, but we need your help and without you this cannot go through,” said Aaliyah Rose Scott, of Jackson Heights.
