    Queens Center nearly doubles with a new wing east of 92nd Street

    The mall, opened in 1973 on land once used by the Fairyland children's amusement park, a supermarket and parking, was expanded from 2002 to 2004. The original building was renovated and this wing was added on the east side of 92nd Street, nearly doubling the mall's size. Today it has more than 150 stores and 967,000 square feet of leasable space.

    “…nearly doubling in size as the original mall was renovated and another wing was added to the east of 92nd Street…”
