<\/p>\nForest Hills\u00a0now has a street sign worthy of its friendly neighborhood superhero.\u00a0Council Member Lynn Schulman, Assemblyman Sam Berger, and representatives from Disney\/Marvel were joined by New York City Council Speaker Julie Menin, Congresswoman Grace Meng, Queens Borough President Donovan Richards\u00a0Jr., Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz, New York State Senator Leroy Comrie, New York State Assemblymember Andrew Hevesi, neighbors, community leaders,\u00a0and Spider-Man fans on Monday, October 12, to officially unveil\u202fSpider-Man Way\u202fat the intersection of Ingram Street and\u00a0Ascan\u00a0Avenue, celebrating the longtime connection between Spider-Man and Forest Hills.\u00a0<\/p>\n
From the pages of Marvel comics to the streets of Queens, Spider-Man has always been a New York story. Peter Parker\u2019s Forest Hills roots have made the neighborhood an important part of the character\u2019s history, and now that connection has a permanent place on the streets of the community.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSpider-Man reminds us that you don\u2019t have to be superhuman to make a difference,\u201d\u00a0said Council Member Lynn Schulman.\u00a0\u201cHere in Queens, we see that every day in the people who show up for their neighbors and give back to their communities. Spider-Man Way celebrates that spirit and recognizes the lasting connection between Forest Hills and one of New York\u2019s most iconic characters.\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0proud to help make that connection a permanent part of our\u00a0neighborhood.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cFor decades, Forest Hills has been home to Spider-Man, and we are thrilled to honor that legacy with a street renaming for our very own\u00a0Webhead,\u201d\u00a0said Assemblyman Sam Berger.\u00a0\u00a0\u201cFor millions,\u00a0myself\u00a0included, Spider-Man\u2019s heroic exploits in comics, film, and video games were more than entertainment. They inspired us to dream big, stand up for others, and remember that anyone can be a hero. Even a kid from Queens.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
The new street designation was\u00a0established\u00a0through legislation introduced by Council Member Schulman and approved by the New York City Council, officially co-naming the intersection of Ingram Street and\u00a0Ascan\u00a0Avenue as\u202fSpider-Man Way.\u00a0For a neighborhood that has been part of Spider-Man\u2019s story for decades, the new sign is a fitting way to make that connection part of Forest Hills itself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now, Forest Hills officially has its own friendly neighborhood superhero street.\u00a0<\/p>\n
