Floyd Bennett Field’s Historic Hangars Receive $10 Million Boost for Restoration and Public Use

Two historic hangars at Floyd Bennett Field, the Brooklyn, New York, airfield associated with Amelia Earhart, Wiley Post, and Howard Hughes, are moving closer to a new chapter. Governor Kathy Hochul announced on November 2, 2026, that New York State will provide $10 million to the Jamaica Bay-Rockaway Parks Conservancy to support the restoration and reuse of Hangars 3 and 4. The funding will help restore the interiors and prepare the buildings for public programming, education, workforce development, and community activities. The Dormitory Authority of the State of New York will administer the investment. “With this $10 million investment, we are turning these historic hangars into a place for learning, opportunity and fun,” Hochul said. The state grant builds on a separate $26 million National Park Service investment in the hangars’ exteriors. Working with the Park Service, the conservancy plans to prepare nearly 50,000 square feet of interior space for public use, giving the former aviation buildings a continuing role within Gateway National Recreation Area.

When to See the Dyker Heights Christmas Lights in 2026

Most homeowners begin putting up their Christmas decorations around Thanksgiving weekend, with more houses joining in throughout early December. We recommend visiting between mid-December and Christmas Eve, when most displays are up and running. Many homeowners keep their lights on through New Year’s Eve, and some leave them up until early January. The best time to visit is between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m., although there are no official hours since each homeowner sets their own schedule. Weekends are especially busy closer to Christmas, so try visiting on a weekday around 5:30 p.m. to avoid the biggest crowds. And don’t arrive too late — some residents begin switching off their lights around 9 p.m.!
