Monthly Community Forum: Amazon HQ2 & Hour Children

  • The Irish Center 10-40 Jackson Avenue Long Island City, NY, 11101 United States (map)

Join the Hunters Point Civic Association at the Irish Center on Wednesday, January 16 to learn about and discuss Amazon’s HQ2 Deal and a special presentation for Hour Children.

This meeting will feature a presentation on the Amazon HQ2 Deal from Eleni Bourinaris, Queens Borough Director of the New York City Economic Development Corporation.

As this will have a major impact on the future of our neighborhood, we encourage all to attend and ask questions; and recommend arriving early to ensure a seat.


We will also have a presentation from Kellie Phelan, Program Coordinator for Hour Children on how we can get involved to help. Hour Children (www.hourchildren.org) helps incarcerated and formerly incarcerated women and their children successfully rejoin the community, reunify with their families, and build healthy, independent, and secure lives
