A Forest Hills residents association has sued the city and the NYPD over what they allege has been an unlawful seizure of the private roads surrounding Forest Hills Stadium to facilitate dozens of concerts and events at the venue over the past three years.
The Forest Hills Gardens Corporation (FHGC), which represents homeowners in the neighborhood, has filed a lawsuit against the city in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, accusing the city of unconstitutionally seizing private streets belonging to the Gardens Corp to accommodate events at the venue.
