Another Sex Offender Found At Pan Am
By Ariel HernAndez
Staff Writer
Another registered Level 3 sex offender is residing at the Pan Am Shelter in Elmhurst, the Queens Tribune
has learned.
After reading our story last week
on a sex offender residing at the shelter, a source went to the Division of
Criminal Justice Services website and
searched the ZIP code for the shelter.
There he not only found the name of
Dwayne Clark, but he also found that
47 year-old Rodney Moultrie is also
listed as residing at 79-00 Queens
Blvd. However, unlike with Clark’s
address, the DCJS also provides Moultrie’s room number.
The DCJS website states that in
1997, Moultrie immediately and
physically overpowered, choked and
threatened a woman to have sexual intercourse with him. He was convicted
in 2003 for attempted rape of the first
degree.
State Sen. Toby Stavisky (D-Flushing) also went onto the DCJS site and
searched 11373. There she found over
15 names listed, all in East Elmhurst
with two residing at the Pan Am Shelter, Clark and Moultrie.
“I am doubly angry and doubly
offended,” Stavisky told the Queens
Tribune. “This man is convicted of a
more serious crime.”
Earlier this month, Stavisky sent a
letter to Human Resources Administration Commissioner Steven Banks,
in which U.S. Rep. Grace Meng (DFlushing), state Sen. Jose Peralta (DEast Elmhurst) and Assemblyman
Francisco Moya (D-Corona)signed.
In the letter, she not only mentioned that the Pan Am Shelter is
the second largest family shelter in
Queens, but that it is less than 600 feet
from the 51st Ave. Academy, which
holds classes for fourth and fifth graders, and is a block over from I.S. 5.
“In DHS’ fair share analysis, one
reason for selecting this site was the
many services in the area for families
and children,” she wrote. “To place
any sex offender in this shelter would
be highly inappropriate, but to place
a level-3 child molester at this facility
shows extreme neglect and needs to be
immediately rectified.”
Stavisky also mentioned several
other instances where DHS placed
and had to remove sex offenders from
Queens’ shelters in the past.
When the Queens Tribune reached
out to the Department of Homeless
Services, we received the same exact
comment as we did when we contacted them last week in regards to Clark.
“We are legally obligated to provide shelter to any New Yorker, regardless of background, who would
otherwise be turned out onto the
streets. All placements we make are in

compliance with state law, and we can response to the allegations, she was
confirm that there is no one residing not convinced.
“If a mass murderer came in, would

DHS Senior Advisor for Communica- you accept him because he’s homeless?” Stavisky asked. “I know they are
tions, Lauren Gray, said.
When Stavisky learned about DHS’ claiming that they can’t turn anyone
away, but you can’t put a sex offender
in a place with children. It’s like sending a five-year-old to a toy store and
saying ‘don’t play with the toys’ or taking a kindergartener to a candy store
and saying ‘just look, don’t taste’. It
absolutely makes no sense.”
Stavisky said she has reached out to
the Department of Community Relations and Government Affairs Unit of
the DHS, the Human Resources Administration, and even called the Pan
Am Shelter herself but none of her
questions and concerns have been addressed.
“They [Pan Am Shelter] tried to use
the privacy argument on me,” Stavisky
said. “Once they [DCJS] list the name
and the photograph of an offender,
that person loses all of their privacy
rights.”
Stavisky said she couldn’t believe
that a registered sex offender was residing at the Pan Am Shelter the first
time. Now that it has occurred a second time, her goal is to make sure that
this doesn’t happen again.

Plans for Charter School Co-Location Withdrawn
The Department of Education
withdrew plans to co-locate a charter school at IS 109, the Jean Nuzzi
School, in Queens Village, after the
Parent Teacher Association and
elected officials voiced opposition to
the plan.
Over 1,200 parents and community members signed a petition requesting the DOE not to move forward
with the co-location, and parents
held multiple rallies protesting the
co-location. Getting behind these
residents were elected officials: Borough President Melinda Katz, state
Sen. Leroy Comrie (D-St. Albans),
Assemblywoman Alicia Hyndman
(D-Springfield Gardens), Assemblyman David Wepun (D-Fresh Meadows) and Councilmen Barry Grodenchik (D-Oakland Gardens), Daniel
Dromm (D-Jackson Heights), and I.
Daneek Miller (D-St. Albans).
The elected officials wrote a letter
to the DOE on June 17, asking them
to withdraw the plan.
Opposition to the site stemmed
from concerns that the middle school
students might be bullied or overwhelmed by the high school students
and that an additional school would
exacerbate overcrowding in the
building. Tensions around inequality
can also be a concern in co-locations,
Traditions Pub, a bar that has repeatedly violated liquor laws, has been
shut down by the 107th Precinct following an emergency suspension order from the State Liquor Authority,
Councilman Rory Lancman (D-Hillcrest) announced on Monday.
“Traditions Pub routinely served
underage drinkers and created a violent, raucous atmosphere that was a
magnet for criminal activity,” said
Council Member Lancman. “It’s absolutely the correct move by the State
Liquor Authority to shut it down.”
“By continually serving underage
drinkers and disregarding safety violations, Traditions Pub repeatedly put
our community at risk,” said Assemblyman David Weprin.
Traditions was closed by the New
York Police Department three times
in March 2016, due to window obstructions, fire exit issues and overcrowding. In the past year, it has been
shut down twice by the Department of
Health. Additionally, an 18-year-old
was found unconscious in the bar and
another individual had to be treated at
Queens Hospital Center for intoxication.
The emergency suspension order
issued led to the immediate shutdown
of Traditions. The bar owners may appeal the charges with the SLA.
with charter school students sometimes having better resources than
the public school students they learn
next to.
The elected officials praised the
DOE’s decision not to move forward
with the plan in a joint statement.
“The message is clear: the City has
not given up on I.S. 109Q,” they said.
“This was the right decision on the
part of the DOE, and the community
is gratified,” they said.
The elected officials added that the
attention on the school highlighted
some of its “needs,” including “antiquated facilities which deserve considerable capital upgrades.”

CB 3 Approves Bike Lane on 31st Ave.
By Ariel HernAndez
Staff Writer
Last week, Community Board 3 approved the bike lane on 31st Avenue,
connecting Jackson Heights and East
Elmhurst to North Corona and the
Flushing Promenade.
“We try to find ways to fit the local
modes of transportation,” said Stephen
Kulhanek, chairman of CB 3. “The bike
lane is something that members of
the community are interested in and
it seems to fit and make sense. We’re
open minded and are always happy
to give our support to things that the
community can use and benefit from.”
Earlier this year, the New York City
Department of Transportation presented the 31st Ave./32nd Ave. proposed
project to CB 3, in which they stated
that the primary goals are to create a
strong bike corridor across Queens,
to build a neighborhood network that
connects to existing routes and to improve access to Greenway and waterfront destinations.
The Queens Bike Initiative is part
of the Pedestrian Safety Action Plan
within Vision Zero Queens. Between
2010 and 2014, there were a total of 98
pedestrian injuries and 47 bicyclist injuries.
According to the Queens Bike Initiatve, the bike lane will create safer connection and improve park access for
tens of thousands of residents in Astoria, Corona, Woodside, East Elmhurst
and Jackson Heights. This bike lane is
also projected to improve access to the
subway and “result in a safer road for
everyone, pedestrians, drivers and cyclists alike.”
“We’re ecstatic and deeply thankful to Community Board 3 for listening
to the voices of the people who spoke
out in support of this initiative,” the
Queens Bike Initiative said in a press
release that was sent-out shortly after
CB 3 approved the lane.

Community resident voices concerns.
Goldfeder Backs Pheffer-Amato
By Jon Cronin
Staff Writer
Two weeks after announcing his retirement from the state assembly, Phil
Goldfeder (D-Rockaway Park) has endorsed Stacey Pfeffer-Amato as his successor.
“Stacey Pheffer Amato will be that
strong voice who will continue our
work to ensure every family can recover from Sandy, have access to transportation, and look forward to a better future for themselves and their children,”
Goldfeder said. “I’m proud to enthusi-
astically endorse Stacey Pheffer Amato
for the New York State Assembly.”
Pfeffer-Amato, a lifelong Rockaway
resident, is the daughter of Goldfeder’s
predecessor Audrey Pheffer and has
been a Democratic district leader for the
past four years. She is a 15 year veteran
of the Rockaway Beach Civic Association. She served two terms as co-president of the Scholars’ Academy Parent
Assocation and served a parent member
of the PTA at PS 232 in Lindenwood.
Pheffer Amato works as a New York
City Department of Education certified
paraprofessional at Waterside Chil-
dren’s Studio in Rockaway Park.
Pfeffer-Amato promises to keep up
the fights that Goldfeder has begun,
like expediting Sandy recovery and has
already involved herself as a committee
member on the state’s Rockaway West
NY Rising Community Reconstruction
Program. She also plans to see through
the reactivation of the the Rockaway
Beach Rail Line, which Goldfeder
has been lobbying for during his five
year tenure. Last month the MTA announced that they will conduct a feasibility study of the rail line and conclude
in June 2017.

Queens Tribune 2016 Election Endorsements
JON KAIMAN FOR CONGRESS
In the race to succeed Rep. Steve Israel, Democrats have a slew of
choices. They all have their strengths and weaknesses. one candidate
in our opinion stands out.
Former North Hempstead Town Supervisor Jon Kaiman has a proven
track record of success. As town supervisor, he spearheaded a number
of initiatives, including a 311 system for the town, the first in a suburban setting and a program called Project Independence, which helps
seniors stay in their homes and neighborhoods rather than be forced
to go to assisted living. While Tom Suozzi has a distinguished record
of public service and would make a fine representative, Kaiman is the
only candidate who has extensive experience dealing with issues on a
national scale. He served as Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s advisor on Hurricane
Sandy recovery. He is a leader when it comes to environmental issues,
having turned the fleet of town-owned vehicles in North Hempstead
green and establishing a town-wide school recycling program. Under
his leadership, North Hempstead was ranked by Money magazine one
of the top 100 places to live in the United States - one of only three
locations in New York to make that list.
That’s the type of innovation and success we need in Congress.
While all the candidates have pretty impressive resumes, Kaiman has
the achievements to back it up.
The Queens Tribune endorses Jon Kaiman in the Democratic Primary
for the Third Congressional District.
CAROLYN MALONEY FOR CONGRESS
Rep. Carolyn Maloney is facing another primary challenge, this
time from computer programmer Peter Lindner, who says it’s time for
a change.
We disagree.
In her time, she has been one of the most effective representatives
our borough has ever seen. She has fought tirelessly to bring in infrastructure dollars, even snatching funds other states, such as Florida,
rejected. Because of her work, the federal government funded the
East Side Access project, which will one day bring the LIRR to Grand
Central Terminal, making for an easier commute for thousands who
aren’t even her constituents. She was also responsible for repairing
the damaged and dangerous seawall at Queensbridge Park, which was
left to deteriorate for decades.
She was a major force behind the creation the 9/11 Commission
and spearheaded the passage of the Zadroga Act aimed at helping
first responders with permanent illnesses stemming from the recovery
at Ground Zero. She is a tireless advocate for women and children fighting to get funding to clear the backlogs of rape kits as evidence
- authored the Credit Card Bill of Rights, bringing more transparency
and fairness for credit card users, and stood up for common sense
gun control laws.
She has also proven not to be a rubber stamp, taking on President
Barack Obama, a president from her own party, on his administration’s deal with the Iranian government.
Maloney’s experience and principled leadership is still needed in
Congress. The Queens Tribune endorses Carolyn Maloney.
GREGORY MEEKS FOR CONGRESS
Rep. Gregory Meeks is facing a primary challenge from Ali Mirza.
In his leadership position on Foreign affairs, Meeks has traveled
extensively throughout the world
But anyone who lives in the 5th Congressional District knows that
even if Meeks is not present, he makes sure his staff is there, at every
local meeting.
And that’s not necessarily a bad thing. As a senior legislator, Meeks
has been able to bring funding to his district, and national attention
to its needs which cannot be done as a freshman legislator..
Meeks has a close relationship with President Barack Obama and
has the ear of Hillary Clinton, who is favored to succeed the president. His high ranking positions in the House Foreign Affairs and
Financial Services committees has been beneficial to the district and
New York.
Having someone with that level of influence representing out community can never be a bad thing.
The Queens Tribune endorses Rep. Gregory Meeks for the Democratic
nomination for another term in Congress.

case that they should get more money,
Clark argued, when we’re battling corruption.
“If we have pay-to-play contracts
going on in the county and New York
state, it’s very hard to tell people, ‘hey,
give us the money, and we’re going to
build,’” Clarke said.
Clarke is running against democratic primary contenders Steve Stern,

It’s a Rich Man’s
World, But It
Doesn’t Have To Be
By Lynn Edmonds
Staff Writer
If you shook him awake in the
middle of the night and demanded an
answer, congressional candidate Jonathan Clarke said he would tell you that
campaign finance is his highest priority issue.
The attorney and outsider candidate
– he’s raised less than $5,000 in donations, while all his rivals have raised
over $200,000 – bills himself as the
only progressive candidate. He’s also
one of about 100 “Berniecrats” across
the nation running for a congressional
seat. The self-identified group of politicians is inspired by Bernie Sanders
to run for state and national legislative
bodies in the hopes of pushing a progressive agenda.
Clarke’s resume in politics is short,
though the race is not his first. In 2013,
he lost to Dennis Dunne sr., in a general election to represent Leavittown,
a Republican-leaning district, in the
Nassau county legislature.
He’s a practicing lawyer, with his
own law firm, Clarke and Fellows. He
mostly represents families and small
business owners, his website says.
Clarke also said he works pro bono to
advocate for animals. He owns a Maltipoo.
Clarke’s personal story of overcoming poverty so severe that he was
forced to drop out of high school in
order to work full-time, is one that informs his politics and sets him apart
from the other candidates.
“I also firmly believe that most
politicians are totally out of touch,” he
writes on his website. “They have never wondered how they were going to
put a roof over their family’s head; or
how they were going to pay their student loan and still eat; or whether they
would be able to afford to pay for a
parent or child’s medical bills and still
have gas for their car to get to work.
I, like many of you, understand these
dilemmas because I have lived them.”
This sensitivity to class, and the
influence of money, is one that is part
and parcel of his campaign.
While Clarke trails the other candidates in fundraising, he will point out
that the number of donations that he
has received, about 435, is more or less
equal to the number that his rival Jon
Kaiman has – with the key difference
being that each of Kaiman’s donors
gave a couple orders of magnitude
more than Clarke’s, on average.
Perhaps forced to get creative – or
appealing to another audience - Clarke
has embraced alternate campaigning
methods. About a month ago, he hosted an “Ask Me Anything” on Reddit.
Many of the individuals who logged
on to his Reddit thread asked Clarke

Jonathan Clarke
about a lawsuit he is currently spearheading in relation to possible election fraud in the presidential primary
in New York City. Clarke focused on
the voter purge in Brooklyn that made
news, while he additionally told followers 200 newly registered Democrats testified that they had wrongly
received notices from the Board of
Elections that the presidential primary
was in September.
“I will tell you the truth. When I
first started this lawsuit, I was skeptical about election fraud too. I always
thought that there is no way that there
can be fraud on such a massive scale.
Now that I have seen first hand what
has happened, I am convinced that
there was deliberate fraud,” Clarke
wrote in the thread.
Clarke believes campaign finance is
the ‘be all and end all’ political cause.
Not because it is an end in and of itself,
but because it is the means to achieving every other goal out there.
“You don’t like gun violence, well
thank the NRA, they’re the ones that
flood the money. You don’t like global
warming, well, the oil industry, the
Koch brothers, they make sure Republicans get elected at all levels. You
don’t like the [Affordable Care] Act,
well, big pharma, hospitals and insurance companies had undue sway on
the writing of legislation because they
can donate,” Clarke said.
Clarke said that taking away industry giants’ ability to get the candidate
of their choice elected was the key to
getting the progressive causes that he
supports passed in the national legislature.
“It’s kind of absurd to say that we
are going to make great changes when
there’s big money that’s fighting these
changes,” he said.
Like many of the candidates, Clarke
focused on Long Island’s high taxes,
and specifically on the fact that New
York State gives more dollars in taxes
to the federal government than it gets
back. New York State can’t make the
Green Friendly
Playground Debuts
In Ridgewood
By Jon Cronin
Staff Writer
The Trust for Public Land opened
their 187th playground at PS 75 in
Ridgewood on Tuesday morning.
Mary Alice Lee, director of the
NYC Playgrounds Program said, “The
entire site was designed with all the
students who worked together with
our landscape architects.”
“The wonderful thing about this
site is that it will be used by the school
during the school day but will then be
open to the community at night,” she
said.
Principal James Thorbs, who started at the school as a custodian, then
a paraprofessional, a teacher and now
principal, said of Councilman Antonio Reynoso (D-Brooklyn) “without
him the garden I’m standing in would
not exist.”
This new “green infrastructure”
playground will capture stormwater
with a turf field, a large rain garden,
trees, and permeable paving.
The playground features a running
track, basketball hoops, outdoor classroom, benches, gazebo and murals all
over the ground that were designed by
the students.
The one acre playground and rain
garden is predicted to capture over
375,000 gallons of stormwater runoff
each year.
Thorbs pointed out that living in
Ridgewood, residents are familiar with
stormwater runoff flooding their basements and keep the overflow out of
nearby and polluted Newtown Creek.
“The thing we have here was a
dream,” said Thorbs. He said once
they had their idea they went on a
tour of agencies and Reynoso, the City
Department of Environment Protection, the Trust for Public Land and
the School Construction Authority
answered.
Lee said, “When he first got here
the playground where the play equipment is was just a parking lot, now,
through many years of his perseverance we end up with this really beautiful playground for his school.”
Reynoso said after agreeing to help
with the playground Thorbes said to
him, “This playground needs to happen. It’s not something I want. It
needs to happen.” Reynoso told him
he could help with one portion of the
playground and Thorbes told him,
“No. The kids need it all.”
“I left making a commitment that
I would do all of it, not knowing how
much it would cost. Thorbes wouldn’t
accept anything except the absolute
best.”
“This environmentally friendly
schoolyard will raise awareness among
New York City’s youngest environmental stewards about the important
connection between effective stormwater management and the health
of our local waterways,” said Steven
Lawitts, DEP Acting Commissioner.

Affordable Housing
Coming to Flushing
The City Council voted unanimously on Tuesday to approve One
Flushing, a 100 percent affordable
housing project that would be built on
Flushing’s Municipal Lot #3, located
at 133-45 41st Ave.
The development would include
231 housing units for families with
incomes ranging from 47 to 100 percent of the city average. Sixty-six units
would also be set aside specifically for
households with seniors. In addition
to the residential space, the new building will have13,000 sq. ft. of community space as well as commercial space
for small businesses. The development
is a public-private partnership between Asian Americans for Equality,
HANAC and Monadnock Development and Construction and Housing
Preservation and Development.
Councilman Peter Koo (D-Flushing) celebrated the result of the vote.
He said Flushing residents were desperate for cheaper housing, as evidenced by the fact that nearby affordable housing development Macedonia
Plaza had 4,000 applicants for only
140 units.
Community Board 7, which the
development falls within, voted 37-2
against the project in March, largely
because of concerns that not enough
units were being set aside for CB 7
residents. HPD policy typically calls
for 50 percent of units to be reserved
for residents of the local district, but
in this case only 25 percent were,
while the other 25 percent were reserved for Community Board 3 and 4
residents.

Kim Seeks Apology For China Immigrant Ban
By Lynn Edmonds
Staff Writer
Donald Trump’s call to ban Muslims harkens back to an earlier period
in the country’s history, when Chinese immigrants were barred from the
country, Assemblyman Ron Kim (DFlushing) wrote in a letter to President
Barack Obama on June 16.
“The parallels with our present are
striking and prescient,” Kim wrote.
“In the twenty-first century, new voices have emerged seeking to sow hatred
and division within our nation, to demonize other ethnicities, and to again
call for the total ban of an entire group
of immigrants based on faith or country of origin.”
Kim called on Obama to issue an
apology for the Chinese Exclusion
Act, legislation that systematically excluded Chinese Americans from 1882
until 1943, on behalf of the federal
government. Part of Kim’s goal – for
an admission of wrongdoing on the
part of the Whitehouse to Trump’s
idea to ban Muslims – is on the wrong
side of history.
“We believe in a nation that learns
from the mistakes we’ve made in the
past,” Kim said in a statement.
Until today, Chinese individuals
are the only national group that has
been explicitly and entirely banned
from immigrating to the United
States. Throughout the ban, high vol-
umes of individuals from other countries were able to enter and leave the
United States.
The Chinese Exclusion Act, and
the Geaery Act, which followed it,
froze the lives of Chinese Americans
already in the country, when it came
to everything from starting a family
to economic survival – let alone success. It also blocked any eventual pathway to citizenship and prohibited the
Chinese population, which strongly
skewed male, from marrying white
women and owning land.
Twenty additional legislators
signed on to Kim’s letter, including
Assemblywoman Nily Rozic (D-Fresh
Meadows).
“The Chinese Exclusion Act stems
from a place of ignorance and hatred
that has no place in today’s society,”
Rozic said. “While some seek to divide
us, it is critical that we stand united in
denouncing hatred and prejudice.”
State Sen. Toby Stavisky (D-Flushing) called the Chinese Exclusion Act
a “stain on the legacy of our country,”
adding that “it still feels relevant today.”
“While we cannot erase the past,
we can correct it. We must learn from
our mistakes as a nation and not risk
making the same ones again in the future,” she said.
The U.S. House of Representatives
and the Senate issued an official apology in 2011.
Borough Board Approves LIC BID
By AriEL HErnAndEz
Staff Writer
The Borough Board approved the
Long Island City Business Improvement District expansion that will now
includes business on Vernon Boulevard, Jackson Avenue and 44th Drive.
Earlier this week, the LIC BID presented their expansion to the Borough
Board, in which the chairpersons of
Community Board 1 and Community
Board 2, along with the members of
the City Council’s Queens Delegation
voted in favor of the project.
The new sub-district is set to be an
expansion of the existing LIC BID,
which was founded in 2005, and includes Queens Plaza North and South,
to 21st Street and Jackson Avenue to
45th Avenue /Thompson Avenue.
The LIC BID’s purpose for creating
a sub-district is to allow services to be
tailored to the new area while allowing for appropriate joint activities and
administrative cost savings.
A representative for Councilman
Jimmy Van Bramer (D-Sunnyside)
was in attendance and said that Van
Bramer is for the project and has
been in support of it “the whole way
through.” Van Bramer also funded the
studies with discretionary dollars, in
which the studies came out well.
Although the expansion will provide supplemental daily sanitation services, beautification, target marketing
and other kinds of things to highlight
the area and advocacy, Lusskin said it
is not supplemental security.
The budget for this triangle will be
$350,000.
“The formula that was chosen
by the steering committee will put
most of that onto the retail frontage of business because this proposal
is about the streetscape,” said the
president of the LIC Partnership,
Liz Lusskin. “The costs were low and
fairly distributed. It’s a modest proposal. We’re not talking about major
capitol improvements or flooding the
streets with security personnel. It’s a
nice marketing piece that can really
make a difference.”
Now that the LIC BID received approval from CB 1, CB 2 and the Borough Board, their next steps are going
to City Planning and then finally the
City Council.

York College Receives Less Funding
By yvette Brown
Staff Writer
Queens Borough President Melinda Katz announced last week that she
has allocated a total of $3.64 million of
Fiscal Year 2017 discretionary capital
dollars to fund projects at four City
University of New York public institutions of higher education in Queens.
The CUNY schools Katz funded are
CUNY York College, Queens College,
Queensborough Community College
and LaGuardia Community College.
Out of all four colleges, York College
received the least amount of money.
Queens College received $1 million to fully fund the construction of
recording studios for the new Music
and Production Certificate program,
which will also provide as a multi-use
facility for classrooms, rehearsal, performance spaces and laboratories for
performers, composers and teachers.
The project is slated to be completed
by January 2019.
LaGuardia Community College received $1 million for the construction
of the Center for Career and Employment Training. The center will be the
central location for all students to be
able to connect to a wide network of
employers as well as provide access to
real-time labor market data. It will also
offer student advisement and training,
which will lead to employment in high

demand. According to the Borough
President’s office, “The total projected
cost of the project is $6 million, with a
possible $2 million from the New York
City Council and $3 million from New
York State.” This project is slated to
be completed by August 2018.
Queensborough Community College is also receiving $1 million towards creating a modern kitchen and
dining hall. This will replace the college’s current undersized basement
dining hall. According to the Borough President’s office, “the allocation
is toward the balance of city funding
needed for Phase 2 based on current
estimates, with a possible $1 million
from New York State.” The project

is slated to be completed by March
2019.
York College, however, will only be
receiving $640,000 towards renovating the greenhouse. There is no slated
time for when the project will be completed.
“Allocations are based in part on
requests we receive from the institutions and consultations with the agencies. York College currently has several open projects to expand classrooms
and labs, including $1,500,000 from
Borough President Katz from past fiscal years,” said Sharon Lee, a spokesperson for Katz.
According to the Borough President’s website, she did, in fact, al-

locate $1 million to York College for
Fiscal Year 2016 for laboratory and
classroom upgrades in the Science
and Modern Languages departments,
these upgrades resulted in instructional space equipped with the latest
technology and teaching devices. Upgrades also went to the school’s data
center.
When Lee was asked why, with the
different requests received from York
College, they chose to allocate the least
amount of money towards renovating
the greenhouse she responded, “The
Greenhouse project was funded previously and with the addition of these
funds [it] is currently ready to proceed. With the Borough President’s
allocation, the funding gap has been
filled and the project can effectively
move forward.”
Calls made to York faculty were
not returned as of press time, but the
CUNY Chancellor James B. Milliken
is very impressed by her allocations
and thanked Katz for her generosity.
“Queens Borough President Katz
had provided critical and generous
funding for CUNY projects that will
enhance program quality, student experience and college value at Queens,
York, LaGuardia and Queensborough
Community Colleges,” said Milliken.
“I deeply appreciate her commitment
to CUNY, which has such a positive
impact on the borough and city.”

LIC Summit
Shows Success For Community
On Tuesday, the Long Island City
Summit took place at the Museum of
Moving Image where dozens of business leaders, elected officials and
residents of the community came to
hear more about what is being done
for the community.
Various panel discussions took
place between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. with
a lunch break at noon. All of them
had to do with how to make the community better and audience members
were allowed to ask some of the panelists what their future plans were for
the neighborhood and how they each
fit into that equation.
One of the panel discussions included a talk about the workforce
of today and tomorrow. The panelists included in this discussion were
Andrea Azzolina from JetBlue, Janet
Corcoran from LaGuardia Community College, Angie Kamath from Per
Scholas and Douglas Stayman from
Cornell Tech. The talk was moderated by Dennis Walcott the President
and CEO of Queens Library and the
introduction was given by Carol Conslato from Con Edison.
The Workforce of Today and Tomorrow panel discussion dealt with
the exploration of how to provide
the right kind of education, skills and
training to enable local residents to fill
these positions and how to connect
the businesses in LIC to candidates
with the right qualifications to help the
economy and community to thrive.
Another informative panel discussion was the Transformations in
Transit panel. The panelists included

Transportation Authority New York

of Transportation. The panel was
moderated by Thomas K. Wright from
the Regional Plan Association and the
introduction was given by Elizabeth
Lusskin from the LIC Partnership.
The Transformations in Transit
panel discussion dealt with experts
talking about new projects to support
emerging needs across all modes of
transportation, including what’s already underway, such as expanded
ferry service, upgraded buses and
bike expansion and intermodal stations, it also dealt with proposals for
the future like the Brooklyn Queens
Connector and new bridges as well
as other creative approaches for other important issues.
The summit ended off with a keynote discussion which was held by
Lusskin and Carl Weisbrod from
NYC Department of City Planning
and NYC City Planning Commission.
The introduction was given by state
Sen. Michael Gianaris and Borough
President Melinda Katz.
“Long Island City, as you all know,
is one of the fastest changing, most
dynamic and fastest growing neighborhoods in all of New York and with
that comes a tremendous responsibility to plan accordingly and to make
sure that these changes don’t happen
randomly and one of the great things
about these summits is that we get
the opportunity to talk as a community about how we’d like to see things
the workforce of today and tomorrow panel.
developed, what would be the smart
way to do it, so that the community
actually has some input into the process as it unfolds,” said Gianaris.
“There are some things that we’ve
done extremely well and I think if you
look at the waterfront, their ability to
develop great space has been terrific and there are some things that
we’d like to see done better and the
first thing that comes to my mind is
mass transit options in Long Island
City. We can’ t mention mass transit
without mentioning schools and we
have built a number of new schools
and that’s terrific, but the population
is happening faster than the construction is happening and we have
tremendous demand. We’re going to
continue to work on that front.”
Katz spoke after Gianaris, starting
off with applause for the summit and
the people responsible for making it
happen.
“It’s an exciting time here in
Queens,” said Katz. “Queens has
our neighborhoods, the professional
spaces, the businesses, all of the
cultures, tourism is growing exponentially, we have 130 languages, 120
countries, everyone has their arts
and culture from the countries they
hail from and we are culminating all
of that all over the borough, but especially here in Long Island City.”
Lusskin then introduced Weisbrod
where he discussed important issues
like the growth of the population and
affordable housing.
“The population and job increases
that we have are putting increased
pressure on our infrastructure; it’s putting increased pressure on our housing particularly and particularly our
affordable housing, I don’t have to tell
any of you that we have 55, 000 people sleeping every night in homeless
shelters and that’s just unacceptable
for a civilized society,” said Weisbrod.
“We have an extraordinary demand
for affordable housing; the demand
exceeds the supply for low-income
households by 2-to-1 ratio. In Long
Island City, 82 percent of the households in Long Island City are rented
households, 18 percent of households own their own apartments or
units, but of those 82 percent, more
than half are rent-stressed and that
means that they’re spending more
than a third of their household income
on rent and almost a third of that 18
percent are extremely rent-stressed
and that means that they’re spending more than half of their household
income on rent and that’s why affordable housing is such an important
goal of this administration.”
Weisbrod continued, “I am particularly supportive of the Phipps project
on Barnett Avenue that’s in Sunnyside, that’s now going through its
public review process, really affordable housing is one of the great challenges of our time. Now the city has
responded by allocating $8.2 million
over 10 years for affordable housing
just to pay for subsidies to build affordable housing and preserve affordable
housing with the goal of preserving
and building 200,000 units of affordable housing over 10 years, after two
years of that program, we are more
than on target with more than 40,000
units since the beginning of 2014.”

Golden Years
Queens Residents Can Age In Place
By Trone DowD
Across the five boroughs, there is
a prevailing trend of seniors leaving
their homes in the sprawling New
York City area in favor of a more affordable and easy going living in the
southern states. City and state agencies however, are trying their best to
change that trend. With the advent
of NORCs, Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities, the state hopes
to keep the aging population in New
York longer.
NORC’s are usually located in
close knit communities such as an
apartment buildings, complexes or
neighborhoods. In these communities, Supportive Service programs are
put in place to address the growing
needs of the elderly as they continue
to age. From activities for the elderly
to participate in to offering crucial
and accessible health services, educational activities and trips, NORC’s
provide similar amenities to what
many seniors hope to find in other
more affordable states like Florida
and Georgia.
NORC programs are made up of
public and private partnerships in
which the Department for the Aging,
the United Hospital Fund, the housing entity, local community service
providers and NORC residents them-
The
Golden
Years
selves all play a part in keeping these
systems running.
In minority areas like Southeast
Queens, NORC’s have been remarkably helpful for aging adults looking
to stay in their home state. Council
members Donovan Richards (D-Laurelton) and Ruben Wills (D-Jamaica)
both have functioning NORC’s in
their districts that are funded by the
Department for the Aging. Councilman Richards told the Queens Tribune
that the NORC in his district was running as intended.
“Since we brought the NORC programming to Roy Reuther Senior Center in Far Rockaway last year, it’s been
serving our seniors very well,” Richards said. “By adding programs that
allow seniors to get crucial services, it
helps them age with dignity and stay
in their homes and communities for a
longer period of time. I’d like to thank
JASA for providing these resources to
the seniors of Far Rockaway.”
The office of Councilman Wills on
the other hand, detailed that while
support for the NORC’s in the district was cut back, the councilman
worked towards getting funding to
support the programs offered at the
residence.
“The NORC at Rochdale Village was
defunded under the previous administration,” a spokesperson from Wills’
office told the Queens Tribune. “Since
that time, its operations have been
supported through the Council’s
NORC initiative, as well as discretionary funding provided by Councilman
Wills. The recently adopted FY 2017
budget includes $253,000
in initiative funding for
RV NORC’s core programs
and services. Additionally, discretionary funding
in the amount of $45,000
will go towards the costs
of maintaining the programs, activities and
meals offered to Rochdale Village’s seniors, and
$35,000 of which will help
to cover the expenses for
Rochdale Village Social
Services’ youth mentoring and leadership program.”
The office told the Queens Tribune
that they hope to see more of an investment there will be more of a permanent investment from the DFTA in
the future.
“The City’s senior population is
rapidly growing,” the representative
said. “The DFTA must do more in the
coming years to meet the surge in
demand from not only residents that
are aging-in-place, but also those
living in underserved communities
like South Ozone Park where DFTA
has yet to compensate for the loss of
resources suffered by a local senior
center it previously funded.”

Dept. For Aging Receives $20 Mil Increase
By JON CRONIN
Staff Writer
The Department for the Aging
has received a $20 million increase in
funding in its budget this year.
The Department For The Aging’s
Fiscal Year 2017 Adopted Budget
totals roughly $330.9 million. The
Council put in about $30,846,000, the
administration this year, which is up
from approximately from $33 million
in FY16 coming from Council initiatives.
The DFTA also received $1.8 million specifically to fund their current
waitlist of approximately 1,400 cases.
“The Council is committed to making sure our growing aging population has the resources they need to
age in dignity and to ensure a strong
sense of community,” said Council
Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito (DBronx/Manhattan).
She added, “Whether by providing health care services, housing assistance or meals, or by creating AgeFriendly Neighborhoods, I’m proud
of the Council’s on-going efforts to
support our seniors.”
“This funding is a step in the right
direction towards permanently ending waitlists for case management
services. I thank Mayor de Blasio for
acknowledging that no senior should
ever languish on a waitlist for vital
city services, and for partnering with
the City Council to provide consistent
and stable funding so that elderly
New Yorkers can age with dignity,”
said Councilwoman Margaret Chin
(D-Manhattan) chairperson of the
City Council Committee on Aging.
DFTA also provides services directly through its Senior Employment
Services Unit, Elderly Crime Victims
Resource Center, Alzheimer’s and
Caregiver Resource Center, Foster
Grandparent Program, Grandparent
Resource Center, Health Insurance Information Counseling and Assistance
Program, and Health Promotion Unit.
Chin said there have been increases in funding to encourage healthy
aging, support cultural activities for
seniors, and services for elderly immigrant New Yorkers.
She noted, “We still have a way to
go to restore aging funding to pre-recessionary levels in order to address
the needs of the growing number of

A Dr.’s Plan for ‘Reciprocal Giving’
By Ariel HernAndez
Staff Writer
Zwanger-Pesiri Radiology is not
only determined to provide quality
service to their patients, but they are
passionate about providing quality
care.
Because of the stubbornly-high
unemployment, there has been a
decrease in insurance coverage, resulting in an increase of unknown illnesses.
In 2009, ZP started Give-Back-Sundays, a day in which Dr. Steven Mendelsohn and other physicians provide
free radiology services to the uninsured and indigent public.
According to Dr. Mendelsohn, the
idea for Give-Back-Sundays came
about in 2008 when the stock market
had crashed and there were a large
number of unemployed individuals.
Because a lot of people were out of
work, they didn’t have health insurance.
Mendelsohn was working out on
his treadmill, watching the news as
they spoke about charitable organizations, five months after the economic
collapse.
“I couldn’t help but think about
what low percentages of the money
went to health insurance,” Mendelsohn told the Queens Tribune. “Some
Dr. Steven Mendelsohn
of the money went back to the administration but not to the people
who actually needed the benefits.”
Rather than doing Give-Back-Sundays in all thirteen offices, at the time,
ZP held Give-Back-Sundays once a
month at only one office. It didn’t take
long before Give-Back-Sundays were
held in multiple offices once a month.
These once a month services lasted
for about two-to-three years.
“One Monday morning, the day after we had our Give-Back-Sunday, we
had a call from a patient that needed
a brain MRI,” Mendelsohn said. “There
was something about this call that
bothered the receptionist so she offered the patient to come in at 2 p.m.
After conducting his MRI, we found
that he had an Epidural Hematoma, in
which he needed to have emergency
surgery that same day. Between the
time he came in for the MRI up to the
time we did the surgery, it had expanded instantly to the point where
if he had not been seen that day, this
man could have died.”
It was that very moment that Mendelsohn realized that these services
are serious and can’t just be done
once a month. Since then, ZP has
been providing Give-Back-Sundays
every Sunday of the week to all Long
Island residents at every one of ZP’s
21 offices.
Some of the services they offer are
MRIs, CT scans, PET scans, mammograms, x-rays and more.
To ensure that both those insured
and not-insured get quality service,
ZP puts millions of dollars towards expensive equipment.
Having quality equipment became
an even greater priority when Mendelsohn found out the truth behind
his mother’s death in 1992. Her death
occurred four months after being diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, when the cancer spreads to other
parts of the body.
Mendelsohn’s father grew curious
about her death because for years,
she had been getting her annual
mammograms, breast sonograms
and clinical breast examinations and
no change had been reported.
According to Mendelsohn, the
doctors were only comparing her
mammogram images to images from
the previous year.
“It was the same thing every time.
They kept saying it was a small nodule
year after year,” Mendelsohn said. “No
one looked at her results from four
years prior.”
Three years prior to Mendelsohn’s
mother’s death, she had an ultra
sound done that showed a biopsy
needle tip missed the nodule on the
sonogram.
“The needle was not in the cancer
so it came back as normal breast tissue,” Mendelsohn said. “It was a discordant report. It’s an element of poor
quality repeated a number of times.”
After that, Mendelsohn realized
that ZP had to spend the money and
invest in high quality equipment.
“It’s so important to invest in good
quality,” Mendelsohn said. “It’s just
like if you were to drive across the
country. Would you drive an old Jalopy with thousands of miles on it
or would you drive a newer car with
only a couple thousand miles? It’s the

HEALTHY AGING
by JONATHAN ECKSTEIN, D.O.
Whether you’re concerned about weight gain, chronic diseases
or sex drive, the key to healthy aging is a healthy lifestyle. Eating
a variety of healthy foods, practicing portion control and including physical activity into your daily routine all go a long way to
promote healthy aging. And it’s never too late to make healthier
PMJIWX]PIGLSMGIW8LIVIEVIRSUYMGO½\IWJSVLIEPXLMIVEKMRKWS
be cautious with supplements or expensive treatments.
As you get older, good nutrition plays an important role in how
well you age. A low-salt, low-fat diet with fruits and vegetables
can reduce age-related risks for disease. Protein is necessary to
maintain and rebuild muscles. Try to integrate a variety of lean

of energy; however, you should avoid simple sugars and concentrated sweets, especially drinks and foods with added sugar.
Fat also provides energy, but you should limit the saturated fats
from meats, butter and cheese. Poly- and mono-unsaturated
fats from corn oil, olive oil, avocados and nuts are a preferred
alternate to keep cholesterol levels lower.
By following some basic dietary changes, overall improved health
can be achieved. Keep in mind that these changes should be

forward. A common mistake is dieting to lose weight and then
reverting back to an unhealthy lifestyle. A gym is not a necessity to create a healthy lifestyle. Adding just 30-50 minutes per
week of exercise can help to make these changes more visual
as we tend to look at our bodies. Some simple changes such as
parking at the furthest spot available and walking this distance
to the mall, the library or the grocery store can add up to 15-30
minutes per week.
A muscle reconditioning program or regimen can help you stay

10 Smart Security Steps For Seniors
From identity theft to home burglary, it’s an unfortunate fact that
senior citizens are often a target for
criminals. By taking simple security
measures while at home and out
traveling, you can dramatically reduce the likelihood you or a loved
one is victimized.
Always lock doors: Whether you’re
in a home or an apartment, always
keep doors locked. It’s a simple yet
effective step to keep property and
the residents safe, during the day and
in the evening.
Secure patio doors: Determined
criminals won’t stop even though the
front door is locked. Use the Master
Lock 265DCCSEN Security Door Bar to
restrict patio and sliding glass doors
from being pried open.
Ask for identification: When service or delivery people come to the
door, ask for ID. If you still feel uneasy,
get a number to reschedule the visit
and then call the company directly to
confirm the employee’s status.
Secure small valuables: Whether home or away, use a light portable safe. The Master Lock 5900D
SafeSpace Portable Personal Safe
keeps cash, documents, electronics
and small valuables safe, plus the
cable can be wrapped around a fixed
object or serve as a carrying handle.
Vary routine while home: While
home, try to vary the routine periodi-
cally. Criminals track when you come
and go, so if it’s obvious you’re always gone during certain times, your
home can easily be targeted.
Maintain routine while gone: If
traveling, make it seem like someone
is home. If you can’t get a house sitter, make sure to stop the newspaper
and mail delivery and have a neighbor bring your trash in on the appro-
priate days.
Keep keys close: Skip the obvious
doormat or planter and instead store
spare keys and access cards securely
by using a Master Lock 5422D Push
Button Portable Key Safe. Plus, the
protective weather cover prevents
freezing and jamming.
No need to name: For phone
books, organization directories and
Golden Years
apartment lobbies, list your first initial rather than your full first name.
This can help protect your identification; strangers won’t know your full
name while friends and relatives will
recognize your initial.
With these simple safety measures,
senior citizens can feel protected in
their homes for years to come.

same thing in radiology. My mom was
victimized by poor quality equipment
and physicians. It made me realize
how important it is to focus on the
quality of care.”
Of the many things Mendelsohn
learned from his mother, one in particular that he lives by, is to not be
selfish with knowledge. Any opportunity you have to teach someone
something, share it. Considering that
his mother was a teacher, helping
people was her motto.
“It was always about sharing knowledge and helping,” Mendelsohn said.
“It is something that she’s beaten into
me since I was only two years old.”
Mendelsohn’s mother’s situation occurred while she was well-insured. His
immediate reaction was “what happens
to the indigent and uninsured people?”
Those eligible for Give-Back-Sun-
days are those who are Nassau or Suffolk County residents, have a referral
from a doctor and have an income
less than $40,000.
Many patients who have received
services from ZP’s Give-Back-Sundays
were undocumented individuals who
work under-the-radar jobs such as
babysitting, mowing lawns, and construction workers.
“Hundreds of thousands of undocumented individuals use our services
because they don’t have health care,
nor do they have the opportunity to
apply for Obamacare,” Mendelsohn
said. “So far we’ve diagnosed well
over 60 new breast cancer diagnoses, along with hundreds of other
cancers.”
Although ZP provides these
free services, their business is continuously growing throughout the
week, Mendelsohn said.
If ZP did not do Give-Back-Sundays,
that would be $2.5 million additional
funds they’d have per year.
“What am I supposed to do? Keep
the money and buy a huge boat or help
thousands of people a year?” he said.
All that Mendelsohn asks of his patients is to reciprocate.
“No matter what point they are in
life, I want them to turn around and
do something nice for their neighbors
or organizations or anyone,” Mendelsohn said. “It’s called reciprocal
giving. If people do that, it will give a
domino effect. Someone who received
help is responsible for helping someone else.”
Although ZP only provides services in Long Island at the moment, they
are looking to expand to Queens in
the future with a number of facilities.

Nursing Shortage Creates Career Opportunities
(BPT) - With nearly 8 million Americans still unemployed, it may be difficult to imagine a labor shortage is
on the horizon. Yet many labor experts predict the health care industry
is headed in that direction - and older
adults may be one of the groups that
will suffer the most if a shortage does
occur as forecasted.
“The potential lack of nurses in assisted living communities is particularly concerning,” says Kim Estes, senior vice president of clinical services
for Brookdale Senior Living.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that by 2022, American
health care facilities will need 1 million more nurses than there will be
nurses practicing. At the same time,
people 65 and older will account for
16 percent of the population, according to the U.S. Census Bureaus. With
85 percent of seniors having at least
one chronic medical condition, and
more than two-thirds having at least
two, seniors are the age group most
in need of care.
Any labor shortage, however, can
have a silver lining for those who are
willing to train for the understaffed
market and pursue available jobs
where the need is greatest.
“The nursing shortage, aging
population and rising incidence
of chronic conditions are creating
a perfect storm of opportunity for
nurses who want to go into caring for those in assisted living,” Estes says. “Many nurses don’t think
about going into senior living as a
career path because it’s not a typical
hospital or doctor’s office position,
but it can be very rewarding. Rather
than treating a patient and moving onto another patient, assisted
living gives nurses the opportunity
to build long-lasting relationships
and enrich the lives of residents and
their families.”
Brookdale’s assisted living communities hire nurses as health and
wellness directors. They oversee all
clinical services within a community
including managing care associates,
setting standards, and leading health
and wellness programming. Rather
than providing daily hands-on care,
these nurses shape the
overall quality and content of care their community’s seniors receive
on a daily basis. The work
offers opportunity to
advance to higher-level
leadership positions at
the district, regional and
corporate level which pay
significantly more than a
typical hospital or physician’s office job.
Some healthcare providers are taking action
to combat the looming
nursing shortage, offering support, training and
assistance to people interested in entering the
profession. For example,
Brookdale is launching a
student loan reimbursement program hoping
to attract more nurses to work in assisted living.
“Whether you’re already working
as a nurse, or are considering a career
in nursing, working in a senior living
community can be professionally,
personally and financially rewarding,” Estes says. To learn more about
job opportunities at Brookdale Senior Living, visit www.brookdalecareers.com.

Stevens. “In every way we are working
hard to keep that conversation [about
Jamaica] going.”
“This year was entirely corporate
partnerships, so we coordinated with
all of our amazing retailers and restaurants and were able to pull off the show

businesses in southeast queens and
Jamaica,” said Binda.

participate in such an extravaganza,”
said Grisby. “I really thank Jamaica BID
for allowing me to participate.”
Vedeta Hanley, creator of the couture V Hanley Collection, participated
in her first Jamaica Fashion Show.
Hanley worked with Abercrombie,
Ralph Lauren and other brands before venturing out
to create her own
business.
“A lot of [the
designs] were inspired by different
kinds of leather

typical black, gold,

laces to delicate
and briquette silver

that’s pretty much
my inspiration for
that collection.

Those two mean a lot to me because I
created everything pretty much from
the beginning to the end.”
Featured designer Margaret Persuad
brought avante garde style pieces to the
runway under her fashion collection
Gamakache Black. Infamously known
for her love of black fabrics, she didn’t
disappoint with black flower textured
skirts and shimmer, a black mermaid
sequined gown with a ruffle bottom,
and a black velvet sheer dress. She displayed 11 designs from the collection.
Yvonne Reddick, District Manager
of Community Board 12, wowed the
audience as she strut across the runway
in a gold sequined dress from Pretty
Women, a clothing line designed for
senior women. Another design from
the collection was an elegant black
ruffled gown.
Riddim Driven, a Caribbean clothing line owned by VP records, showcased graphic t-shirts with an island
flare.
“It’s a lifestyle brand, you represent
your own personal style, your own
personal swag,” said Vybe of Riddim
Driven. “This clothing line is not dictated like ‘you have to wear it this way.’”
Models donned their tees with jeans,
skirts, leggings and shorts to display
various ways to style the shirts.
Jesseyka Roche modeled in the show
for the first time and told herself “don’t
look down, don’t look around and just
rock it, and do the best you can.”
Roche and the modeling team had
two rehearsals prior to the show. Her favorite designer to wear was Kamakache
Black. “She’s phenomenal, her line was
phenomenal,” Roche said.
The best of men’s and women’s
fashion were displayed during
the Jamaica Just My Style Fashion
Show this past Saturday.
Stevens was pleased with how the
night went. “I think tonight flowed
well. Jamaica Avenue is an authentic
and unique place. We have everything
that you need here, and it is welcoming
and it is free, you just have to come out
and hang out with us.”
“I hope that the audience got of the
show that Jamaica Avenue is friendly
and welcoming, and it is a place where
you can shop,” she said.
“It’s an influential district, its rising
continuously and I want them to walk
away with that. I want them to know
that Jamaica Center BID is here to do
whatever we need to do to keep the
conversation going that Jamaica Avenue
is alive.”
Binda believes this is the beginning
of more events to come. “There was so
much excitement that a lot of the stores
that came by earlier left saying that they
want more of these kind of events in
and around the neighborhood,” said
Binda.
“We want to show that this neighborhood has something for every age,
every ethnicity, every style, and that
we have some rich culture, and it’s so
easy to showcase that because that’s
what Jamaica Queens has always been
about.”

Queens Artist Makes “Skin Wars” Top Four
By Ariel HernAndez
Staff Writer
Two months ago the Queens Tribune
learned that Jackson Heights’ own Michael Mejia was going to be on the Game
Show Network’s most-watched original
series, “Skin Wars”, the first-ever body
painting competition show on TV. We
now know that Mejia has made it to the
top four of the semi-finals.
The competition kicked-off with 12
contestants, but as the season comes to
an end, Mejia’s place in the competition
remains firm.
“I’m not surprised,” Mejia told the
Queens Tribune. “It’s what I came here
to do.”
Mejia recalls his reaction when he
received the call from the “Skin Wars”
producers, who found him on social
media.
“I was thrilled and really excited,”
Mejia said. “It has been an amazing
opportunity. It was difficult, but overall
an incredible experience.”
Although he was born in Elmhurst
Hospital and raised in Jackson Heights,
Mejia attended high school in Colombia with the intensions of being
an engineer. Mejia had always been
a creative child but he didn’t think to
pursue art in Colombia because it was
looked down on.
In May of 2013, Mejia graduated
from the School of Visual Arts.
Mejia considers himself to be a
visual artist. He not only body paints
but he does sculptures, sketchings,
paintings and murals.
“I couldn’t be happier with who I
turned out to be,” Mejia said. “I always
liked new things and being as creative as
possible. Now I aim to make the world
see it how I see it.”
Considering that “Skin Wars” is
filmed in Los Angeles and because
Mejia loves to travel, he lives in both
Jackson Heights and LA.
“It’s so different in LA,” Mejia said.
“In New York you can go out at any
time you want but in LA, everything
closes really early and you need a car
to get to places.”
Mejia doesn’t plan to stick with NY
and LA; His overall goal is to continue
traveling and making art wherever he
goes. His plan is to network with artists from all over the world and create
a worldwide social network.
Mejia said that with so much tragedy
in the world, people need art to spread
the love and awareness.
“The Orlando massacre is a heartbreaking thing,” Mejia said. “Especially
for me, being a gay Hispanic. I have a
lot of friends that lost
loved ones.”
Mejia s aid t hat
someone, who was familiar with his work,
reached out to him via
social media to request
that Mejia make a piece
of art for those who
died during the Orlando shooting, which
he not only agreed to,
but is excited to get
started on.
Although he hasn’t
done any art for the Jackson Heights community,
Mejia really hopes that
the opportunity will
present itself soon.
Show some support
for our Queens local by
watching the last couple
of episodes for the season to see if Mejia goes
home with the $100,000
cash prize, an all-expense paid trip for two
to the prestigious World Bodypainting
Festival in Austria and a custom-made
stencil line from Bad Ass Stencils.
“Skin Wars” airs at 9 p.m. on
Wednesday nights on the GSN channel.

Tennis Greats Immortalized In Forest Hills
By Jon Cronin
Staff Writer
Last Thursday on the eve of Forest Hills Stadium’s inaugural summer
concert series, artist Andre Trenier
finished up his spray painted portrait of
Althea Gibson under the LIRR trestle
on Continental Avenue.
“Oh my Gawwwd, this is so beautiful,” a passer-by exclaimed as she made
her way to Austin Street. “It was always
so dirty,” she adds. Others gawked, took
photos, patted Trenier on the back and
complimented his talent.
Trenier had already painted a yellow background over what most would
agree was a dirty wall under the trestle
neighboring the iconic Forest Hills
community and cobble stone Station
Square.
Over the background, along with
Gibson, he painted tennis greats like
Billie Jean King, Arthur Ashe and
Douglaston’s own John McEnroe, in
honor of the West Side Tennis Club’s
great history.
Across the street from the tennis
greats’ mural, an artist duo named Crisp
and Praxis painted punk rock legends
and Forest Hills natives, the Ramones.
The man behind all this is Noah
Sheroff, who runs the non-for-profit
501 (See) (Streets) as a way to beautify
Featured here are Billie Jean King and Arthur Ashe.
the five boroughs. Looking around at
the murals, Sheroff said, “It also works
as a graffiti deterrent.” This isn’t the first
project the non-profit has undertaken.
They’ve created murals Brooklyn,
Queens, Manhattan, the Bronx and
even Mt. Vernon in Westchester, where
Trenier painted a mural of famed hip
hop artists Heavy D and the Boys for a
park that was named after them.
Sheroff, who has no art background
and a Master’s degree in public adminis-
tration, coordinated the programs first
project in July 2014 across the street
from Yankee Stadium in the Bronx.
There artists painted mural of the Yankee legends.
Sheroff said he reaches out to locals,
civic organizations and politicians
and asks if they are interested in the
beautification project. In this case, he
reached out to Assemblyman Andrew
Hevesi’s office (D- Forest Hills), they
liked the idea and few days later, he was
contacted by reps of Forest
Hills Stadium.
Jon McMillan, general
manager of Forest Hills Stadium, said of the project, “We
use that underpass all the
time, and it’s truly the worst
place in Forest Hills, maybe
all of Queens. It should be a
place where Forest Hills, the
Gardens, the West Side Tennis Club, and the Stadium
meet, but instead it’s this
pigeon-infested nightmare.
Mike and I wanted to fix it,
for our patrons but mostly
for the neighborhood. We
called everyone we knew,
Melinda Katz, Karen Kozlowitz, Andy Hevesi, CB6,
the 112th precinct - anyone
who would listen basically.
Everyone was supportive and helped
us along our way. We’re part of the
community, which gives us a real sense
of responsibility. The underpass is an
indefensibly awful spot; we knew we
could improve it and so we did. If we’re
a catalyst for making that space safer,
cleaner, and less frightening then we
know we’re making a positive impact.”

Collier Named Queens College B-Ball Coach
By DaviD Russell
The hiring of Matthew Collier as
men’s basketball coach at Queens College marks a homecoming for the firsttime head coach. “Being a Queens native and understanding what Queens
College is from a reputation standpoint and the community and the type
of people that attend Queens, I’m very
comfortable and familiar with it.”
Collier grew up in South Jamaica
and attended elementary and junior
high school in Bayside. His wife, Erica,
grew up in Corona under the shadows
of Shea Stadium. Collier’s father, Bernard, was an all-city player at Andrew
Jackson. “Every time I run into an old
New York City player and they hear
my last name and ask if he’s my father,
their eyes light up and they talk about
what a great player he was,” Collier
said. “It’s a sense of pride for me and
my family.”
Collier attended UMass where he
served as manager and traveled with
the team. “I learned not only the game,
but the program from the ground up
as far as everything entailed in running a program.”
Before getting a head coaching job,
Collier was an assistant at Drexel and
Howard. “As an assistant coach, this is
what you prepare for and you hope you
get the opportunity to do it one day, so
I’m definitely fortunate that I’ve been
given that opportunity.”
There was no doubt that this was
a job he wanted badly. “After it was
offered to me, I accepted within
30 seconds,” Collier said. “It didn’t
take much thought.”
The Knights had been in the
news last season after the players
threatened a mutiny if head coach
Darryl Jacobs wasn’t fired, but
none of that phases Collier. “I’ll
do it the right way but not in contrast to what happened because
I don’t know what happened,”
Collier said. “I want the players
to focus on the future and I’m
just focused on making 2016-17
a great year for Queens College
basketball and building on that
foundation and moving onward
and upward.”

Red Dragons Rally At Peter Collins Park
After their 5-0 loss to Blau Weiss
Gottschee Academy in the 2013 Arch
Capital Group Cup final, the Little
Neck-Douglaston Red Dragons of
the Long Island Junior Soccer League
returned to the Peter Collins Soccer
Park on June 11 with a mission.
Their Boys-Under-15 Arch Capital Group Cup final against South
Bronx United La Furia Azul of the
Cosmopolitan Junior Soccer League
featured many opportunities but no
goals, in regulation or overtime.
It took seven rounds, but the Red
Dragons won in the shootout, 5-4.
Matthew Asca, Dean Athaniados, Anthony Dingco, Hoyoung Lee and Lucas Wiacek converted penalty kicks
for their team.
“We wanted it more and were a
bit more disciplined,” said Dragons
Coach Marc Adamek. “We lost here
in the finals, 5-0, and we remembered
that.”
South Bronx United received the
Howard Rubenstein Sportsmanship
Award as determined by the game officials. Now living in Kentucky, Mr.
Rubenstein was President of ENYYSA
from 1980 to 1984.
The Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association would like to thank
our sponsor, Arch Capital Group.
The non-profit Eastern New York
Youth Soccer Association has over
With over 100,000 youth soccer players, both boys and girls, and more

state of New York east of Route 81.

hance the game of soccer for children

healthy development of youth players,
coaches, referees and administrators.

play soccer is turned away. ENYYSA
