Queens Borough President Helen Marshall (next to plaque) presided over dedication of “The Forum at Borough Hall,” Monday, December 9th. “The Forum at Borough Hall” is the new multifunctional, indoor meeting space that has been constructed in the rear courtyard of Borough Hall. It is the first addition to the building since it opened more than 70 years ago and will serve as a location for government hearings, community meetings, cultural performances and other public events. The ceremony included a performance by the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts choir and the unveiling of a plaque that will be erected inside The Forum. Joining Marshall at the ceremony were (from l. to r.) Edna Wells Handy, commissioner of the New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS); David Resnick, deputy commissioner of the New York City Department of Design and Construction(DDC), and New York City Comptroller John Liu.
