these would have worked really well on the new pedestrian plaza instead of those ugly umbrella-tables, which, if you've noticed, are totally off-level since the street peaks upwards in the middle.

According to the DOT's Jackson Heights Portal, the current tables are temporary.

"As you may have seen, the pedestrian plaza has received temporary street furniture.  The blue tables/seats will allow residents and visitors to use the plaza while a more detailed plan is developed.  Please stay tuned with NYC DOT and your local elected officials regarding planning and development for the next phase of the pedestrian plaza – coming in Spring 2012."
