ABOUT THE EVENT
Volunteers will help Flushing BID run their second annual Street Festival
The Downtown Flushing Transit Hub Business Improvement District (BID) or "Flushing BID" is a not-for-profit organization that was formed in September 2003 by property owners, businesses, residents and community leaders with a stake in the downtown Flushing community.
The BID acts as advocate, liaison, promoter, and problem solver for the community and provides a critical link between NYC government and the neighborhood. The members of the Downtown Flushing Transit Hub BID include businesses, hotels, financial institutions, restaurants, leading retail establishments both large and small, cultural institutions, public officials, and residents. As a public-private partnership between City government and the business community, the BID works hand in hand with the local elected officials and government agencies. The BID enables the community to truly unlock the enormous potential of Flushing and transform Flushing into a "destination of choice" for all people from throughout the region!
