Over 30 locals crowd into a bus headed from Bayside Hills, to a hearing over what they say is the future of the neighborhood.

"This has been my life," said architect Paul Bonfilio, while referring to the crowd of over 30 Northeast Queens residents who testified against his project before the Board of Standards and Appeals Tuesday.

Bonfilio was requesting special permission to build a home in Bayside Hills that neighbors say would be shoe-horned into a small lot, ruining the neighborhood's aesthetics, and taking away street parking.
