The Kew Gardens Interchange is a complex junction in Kew Gardens, in the center of the New York City borough of Queens.

Description

The Kew Gardens Interchange is located roughly midway between LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport. Highways feeding into the Kew Gardens Interchange include the Grand Central Parkway, Interstate 678 (the Van Wyck Expressway), the Jackie Robinson Parkway, Queens Boulevard (New York State Route 25), and Union Turnpike.[1]

The Kew Gardens Interchange is an incomplete junction: some highways are not connected and others are indirectly connected by Main Street and Union Turnpike.

History

A distorted trumpet between Grand Central Parkway and Interboro Parkway, with Union Turnpike appearing somewhat as a service road, was constructed in the 1930s.[2] Connections to the Van Wyck Expressway were added later.

On August 18, 2010, the New York State Department of Transportation broke ground on the first phase of reconstruction of the Kew Gardens interchange. The renovation project includes the renovations of the nearby Queens Boulevard viaduct over the Van Wyck Expressway and the nearby Briarwood subway station ({{NYCS trains|Queens east local}}).[3]
