Parks & Recreation Commissioner Adrian Benepe joined Queens Borough President Helen Marshall, former Borough President Claire Schulman, Economic Development Corporation Vice President David Kane, other elected officials, and construction crews for the ceremonial "topping-out" of the new Flushing Meadows Corona Park Pool and Ice Rink. Construction crews connected the final cable that supports the roof and flew flags from the roof to celebrate reaching the highest point of the structure.
