Giant storm sewers address flooding in Queens
QUEENS, N.Y. (PIX11) — When storms dump rain on the city, sewers are put to the test. Some of them can't handle the flow. Flooding is a problem around the city. A multi-billion-dollar mega project is underway in Queens. More Local News A half-mile stretch of storm sewer is being 'cast in place,' where crews build the form and concrete is poured. It will eventually run from 149th Avenue and 224th Street along Springfield Lane in Idlewild Park. It will drain into a creek and Jamaica Bay southwest of Rockaway Boulevard. Thomas Foley is the commissioner of the NYC Department of Design and Construction. 'A great engineering feat that's on budget and on schedule. People won't know this is under their feet,' Foley said. Smaller local lines connect to bigger sewers to channel stormwater and runoff. The new sewers at this location can handle more than a million gallons of water a minute. The plan includes protection measures for almost 5 acres of tidal wetland in Idlewild and Brookville parks. The sewers are below ground. PIX11's Greg Mocker walked inside the 12-foot-wide and 8-foot-tall structures with engineers, workers, and Queens Borough President Donovan Richards. 'With about 40 to 50 years of disinvestment, and developers building homes without putting in sewers, that's environmental racism. This will give people the quality of life they deserve. It's the fruits of our labor,' Richards said. The Southeast Queens Initiative is a group of more than 40 infrastructure projects totaling $2.7 billion, which are rebuilding streets and adding drainage throughout Southeast Queens. Crews are working on different sections and connections in the coming years. The project around Idlewild Park is set to be done in September 2026. City water and sewer customers pay for parts of the projects. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Muskegon event to commemorate D-Day with ship tours, reenactment
MUSKEGON, Mich. (WOOD) — A ship that was at Omaha Beach on D-Day will be the backdrop for an event to commemorate the anniversary of the invasion of Normandy. The USS LST 393, built during WWII, is one of only two remaining landing ship tanks out of more than 1,000. The ship is now located on the Muskegon waterfront and is the only one that the public can tour from top to bottom. 'LST 393 was born, launched on Veteran's Day 1942 and fought very hard during WWII,' said John Stephenson, one of the board of directors for the USS LST 393 Veterans Museum. 'She was in three invasions: Sicily, Italy and she was in the Normandy invasion, D-Day. In 1945, she was sent back to the United States to be overhauled and she was going to be in the invasion of Japan. Fortunately, after the bombs were dropped, there was no invasion of Japan and she was put in the mothball fleet.' Stephenson said the ship was then found by Muskegon commercial docking group West Michigan Dock and Market, and served as a freighter carrying new cars between Michigan and Wisconsin for 25 years. On June 6 and 7, the will host the 11th community-wide remembrance of the sacrifices made during the invasion of Normandy and throughout World War II. 'Air Raid Muskegon' will feature ship tours, a free film screening on the ship's deck, 'Andrews Sisters Tribute' singers, WWII reenactors representing military personnel you would have found on D-Day in 1944, food trucks and more. 'During the event we commemorate the service of the soldiers and the sailors and the airmen who fought hard to free Europe and us from the grip of Nazi domination,' Stephenson said. On Saturday, Medal of Honor recipient will give the keynote address and be on hand to greet the crowds. Proceeds from ship tours, which will be discounted to $10 per person Saturday, will benefit the museum, which is a nonprofit run almost exclusively by volunteers. 'We are not just a museum about war, we are a museum to serve veterans,' Stephenson said. 'Every dollar goes back into the ship. The rest of the money goes to veteran organizations that really need our help.' You can find the full schedule of events for 'Air Raid Muskegon' . Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
