Mayor Zohran Mamdani reaches his 50th day in office on Thursday and has already launched some notable initiatives in Queens, despite his administration still being very much in the transition stage.
Within his first week in office, Mamdani announced that the city would be restarting the planning process for the controversial 31st Street redesign in Astoria, which would install protected bike lanes along a mile-long stretch of the corridor between Newtown Avenue and 36th Avenue.
