A Day on the Road in the World’s Borough— Queens, New York
The New York Fed’s regional visits typically take our team many hours and miles away from our office in Lower Manhattan. There is, in fact, a lot of ground to cover in the Second District. But in March, we stayed closer to home, with a visit to New York City’s remarkably diverse borough of Queens.
We Are the Road Crew: Touring the Second District
The New York Fed’s regional roadshows — quarterly trips to different parts of the Second District — help us maintain connections with the people and communities we serve, gather insights into local economic conditions and share research on the regional economy. On these visits, President Dudley and other New York Fed staff meet with business leaders, public officials, representatives from local community and economic development organizations, students and educators to get a sense of how the real economy is performing and impacting their communities.
