Downtown Flushing Neighborhood Guide

Queens comes by its image of a sea of tract housing honestly. There are only four main towns: Astoria, Jamaica, Newtown (now Elmhurst) and the metropolis of the borough, Flushing. Downtown Flushing evolved around Main Street (the most deserving of the several "Main Streets" in New York City), especially in the 1970s. The first to transform the sleepy, small-town "main street" into today's never-closed neighborhood were the Chinese and Korean immigrants. So many Asians set up shops here that downtown Flushing became known as Queens Chinatown. Downtown Flushing is now among New York City's largest business districts. Nearly half of the city's half-million Chinese-Americans live here and the neighborhood, about 70 percent Asian, feels every bit the same as any vibrant Asian city.

Architecture and landmarks

Fresh new steel-and-glass towers are rising beside century-old brick apartment buildings in downtown Flushing. Some heritage buildings have held their ground even longer. The Old Quaker Meeting House on Northern Boulevard still serves as a house of worship for the Religious Society of Friends after more than 300 years. Across the street the old town hall, raised in the German Rundbogentil style in the 1860s, now does duty as a municipal courthouse. Main Street is studded with souvenirs from its past, including the Great Depression-era United States post office. The Neoclassical building is dominated by six stout Ionic columns supporting a heavy pediment; the building is dressed in handmade oversized red bricks. The familiar curving facade of the Queens Library down the street boasts one of the largest Asian cultural collections in the country.
