The plan to turn an abandoned section of LIRR tracks in Queens into an urban park is moving forward with a feasibility study, but only one candidate for borough president supports the idea. Everly Brown, who the News calls "a long-shot democrat," likes the QueensWay plan, but Peter Vallone Jr. said he'd rather reactivate the rail for transportation. Vallone's biggest democratic competition, Melinda Katz, said she'd take a stance once the study is complete. [NYDN; previously]
