Guide To The Guide

By Steven J. Ferrari Editor-in-Chief

moved to Queens a few years ago, with only a cursory idea of what was around me. I was coming from Chicago, and even though I had spent countless hours researching my soon-to-be new home, there was so much that I could not know until I was living here. So much of what I needed to know was alien to me, and I looked forward to exploring Queens, finding great places for a night out (of which there are many) or somewhere to go for an amazing meal (of which there are even more). I wanted to learn more about my representatives in local government and the closest place to spend a day outdoors. Once I got settled in to my new home, it was time to go out and discover what Queens had to offer. Thankfully, I had some help. When I signed a lease for my new place, the realtor that I had been working with handed me something special. It was that year’s edition of the Blue Book,

the Queens Tribune’s Official Guide to Queens. He told me that people moving to the Borough found it useful, so he kept extra copies around. I spent days poring over that issue, learning as much as I could about my new home. That was my first experience with the Official Guide to Queens. A few months later, I was brought on to lead the Queens Tribune editorial staff. Not long after that, I had my second experience with the Blue Book, only this time I was learning what it took to put this great resource together.

Since the first edition of the Official Guide to Queens, an idea that was conceived by Michael Schenkler in 1991, the Guide has become the most comprehensive resource for anyone who navigates the Borough. It is a quick reference guide, a phone book, a book of lists and a diorama of Queens, wrapped in handy newspaper form. Over the years, the Official Guide to Queens has become my favorite issue to produce. While news is fleeting, and new issues come and go each week, the Official Guide to Queens endures for another 12 months. Ever y year, elected officials, civic leaders and ordinary citizens tell me how useful they find the Guide. Knowing that our work is appreciated by our readers is always a wonderful feeling. The issue you hold in your hands (or are reading online via our recently-updated website) has been in development since Jan. 31, 2013 – the day the previous edition of the Official Guide to Queens was released. Copies of the book can be seen on all of our desks, marked up to note changes that

have occurred over the course of the previous year. If an elected official opens a new district office, we make note of it. If a senior center of firehouse closes, we make a note of it. We receive emails and phone calls and even faxes asking us to update our listings, and every communication with one of our readers is a reminder of how important the Official Guide to Queens has become. We take that responsibility seriously. In the last year, the Queens Tribune reinforced its commitment to the Borough it has covered since 1970. As we enter our 44th year of publication, we plan on meeting the ever-changing needs of Queens, as we have done for more than four decades now. We hope that our readers find this year’s Official Guide to Queens as useful as they have in years past. Now that this year’s edition has been put to bed, it’s time to get to work on next year’s.

Serving The Borough

QUEENS Queens Borough Hall

ueens Borough Hall is located at 120-55 Queens Blvd. in Kew Gardens at Union Turnpike near the interchange between the Grand Central Parkway, Jackie Robinson Parkway and Van Wyck Expressway, adjacent to the Queens Criminal Courthouse. It is home to the offices of the Queens Borough President, the Queens offices of numerous City agencies and some court space. Previously the Borough’s municipal offices were scattered throughout the Borough before being brought together under one roof. The first Borough Hall was located in Long Island City at 10-63 Jackson Ave. at 49th Avenue, established when Queens became one of the five boroughs of New York City on Jan. 1, 1898. As the population expanded, the need for a dedicated civic building closer to the center of the Borough became more apparent. The current Borough Hall opened on Dec. 4, 1940, and is located very close to the geographic center of the Borough. It was built in just nine months during the Great Depression at the low cost of only $1.6 million. The architects, William Gehron and Andrew J. Thomas, eliminated elevators in the plans to speed up construction. The long, low three-story brick building has a central entrance on Queens Boulevard marked by angular columns that represent the classical-style architecture popular during the era. It has become one of the most popular spots for marriages in the City, using the building’s small chapel, presided over by the deputy city clerk. This was the first dedicated Borough Hall in the nation and represented the growth of Queens County from rural villages to booming suburbs to a bustling urban center during the 20th Century.

here are 14 community boards in Queens, coordinated by the Borough’s Director of Community Boards. The boards act as liaisons between Queens citizens and the municipal agencies that serve them. Each board has up to 50 non-paid members who meet once a month to discuss community issues. All members are appointed by the Queens Borough President, with half of them nominated by City Council members. At presstime, Borough President Melinda Katz was scheduled to appoint new board members in April, so changes will be made to the following lists of members. All Census figures were compiled by the New York Dept. of City Planning.

Past & Present

Borough Presidents Melinda Katz 19th Borough President of Queens County

elinda Kat z was elected on Nov. 5, 2013 after winning both the Democratic primary and general election last year. Katz replaced former Borough President Helen Marshall, who held the position from 2002 until 2013. Katz has gathered a wealth of experience from her other stops in elected office. She was in the State Assembly from 1994 to 1999, representing Forest Hills, Rego Park, Middle Village and Glendale. During her time

there, she wrote and passed 16 laws, including Kendall’s Law, which helps prosecutors pursue long-term and repeated cases of child abuse. She was also chair of the Assembly’s Urban Health Sub-Committee. The current Borough President then got a taste of the office, serving as Director of Community Boards under Marshall’s predecessor, Claire Shulman. Among her duties during that time were to plan economic development projects for the Borough and designate sites for City facilities. Kat z was elected to the City Council, representing Forest Hills, Rego Park, Kew Gardens and parts of Maspeth, South Elmhurst

and Richmond Hill from 2002 to 2009. She was Chair of the Land Use Committee in the Council, creating more than 15,000 units of affordable housing during that time. She also petitioned for zoning measures that paved the way for many redevelopment projects in all five Boroughs. After unsuccessfully running for City Comptroller in 2009, she left politics for a few years, working at the law firm Greenberg Traurig, which specializes in land use and government affairs. Katz returned to public life in 2013, when she announced her bid for Queens Borough President. Her campaign focused on promising to

bring more resources and money back to Queens as well as continuing to boost the emerging arts and technology scene in western Queens. During her speeches, she always remembers what her parents did in Queens and thanks them for what they did in the Borough. Her father, David, founded and conducted the Queens Symphony Orchestra. Jeanne, her mother, created the Queens Council for the Arts. Katz lives in Forest Hills with her partner, Curtis Sliwa, who is also a radio personality and founder of the Guardian Angels. They are raising two children, Carter and Hunter, in the same home Melinda grew up in during her youth.

Queens’ Bravest

Fire Department

retired battalion chief of the FDNY once said it is not a firefighter’s willingness to enter a burning building that makes it special; it is that person’s ability to acknowledge their own fear and still descend into the danger that earns them the distinction of Bravest. New York City’s Bravest are the elite of a special breed of civil servant; proud components of what is widely considered the best firefighting force in the world. There are more than 60 firehouses in Queens, some more than 100 years old, and every one the anchor of its neighborhood. And each uniformed member – from the officers down to the probies – has sworn to protect the community it adopts as its second home. Active 24 hours a day, seven days a week, these quarters are also sources of comfort and pride for residents of the community. Majestic engine rigs and ladder trucks tucked inside brick buildings with towering cherry-red garage doors are emblematic of the daily service provided by the dedicated men and women of the Fire Department of the City of New York. Below is a list of Queens’ engine companies, ladder companies and battalions.

Fighting Hunger

Food Pantries

ne in four New York City children live in foodinsecure households, which means families must decide whether to pay rent, utilities, medical care or food, according to the Coalition Against Hunger. Hunger agencies reported to CAH that some of the fastest growing population pools in the Borough in need of food assistance were families with children, seniors and immigrants. If you are in need of food, call the Coalition Against Hunger at (866) 888-8777 for food assistance. Their directory of about 200 food pantries, soup kitchens and other food assistance programs located all over Queens has been reprinted here, and can also be located at nyccah. org/hungermaps.

Queens’ Silver Lining

Senior Centers

ife really can start at 60. With more than 50 senior centers located in Queens, it is easier than ever for one’s golden years to be full of exciting activities, from biking and jogging to playing the slots in Atlantic City. Just under one-third of City residents over 60 reside in Queens, and the majority of those are not bound by mobility or self-care limitations, according to the 2010 census. Moreover, several studies also show that seniors today are healthier and more active than in the past. Many are playing tennis and pool instead of just pinochle and cribbage. For seniors who need a little bit of help, centers provide a wide variety of services, such as arranging transportation and meals for homebound residents. Some even offer assistance with legal issues and taxes. More information can be found at the City’s Department of Aging Web site, nyc.gov/html/dfta, or by calling 311. You can also email the Dept. of Aging by visiting http://www.nyc.gov/html/dfta/html/contact/contact. shtml.

Reaching Out, Finding Help

Senior Reference & Aid

Adult dAy CARE PROgRAmS For older people in frail health, managing a daily life at home is often a struggle that may lead to institutionalization. There is an alternative enabling them to retain their independence and remain in the community. Adult Care Programs provide medical assessments, rehabilitation and counseling services. These activities all take place in a friendly, social setting, helping to counteract the isolation and depression suffered by so many elderly individuals who are coping with disabilities. The criteria for eligibility, fees and other specific services vary from program to program. For more information on Adult Day Care programs, call the Queens Borough President’s office at (718) 286-2680. EldERly PhARmACEutICAl INSuRANCE COvERAgE PROgRAm The EPIC is a prescription drug insurance plan for the elderly, sponsored by New York State. This program is intended for seniors who do not have adequate insurance coverage for prescription drug expenses. To qualify, you must be a New York State resident, 65 years of age or older, and you must meet the program’s income guidelines. If eligible, you can save as much as 60 percent on the cost of prescription drugs. SENIOR tRANSPORtAtION The Borough President’s office created the Queens Para-Transit Network more than a decade ago. Today, they transport seniors to medical appointments, senior centers, social service agencies and shopping centers. Seniors are also able to access car service through the network. For more information, contact the Borough President’s office at (718) 286-2680. hOuSINg Rent Controlled & Rent Stabilized Apartments Apartments covered by rent control are in buildings built before 1947 with more than three units. The resident must have occupied this apartment since or before July 1,1971. If your building was built after 1947 and contains six or more units, or the tenancy began after July 1, 1971, the apartment is most

likely under rent stabilization.

Train To Everywhere

Going Underground

ven though there are entire areas of the Borough of Queens that do not have direct subway service, the New York City subway system is a vital mode of transportation for everyone in Queens. Like veins in a body, the tunnels and elevated tracks of the Queens subway routes reach through the Borough, carrying in them important “blood” in the form of commuters, tourists, students and day trippers. So it is not surprising just how debilitating a shutdown can be, even for a short time. In 2013, the 7 train, which serves two of the Borough’s busiest stations, became a headache for commuters and the MTA alike. Weekend shutdowns and service changes left anger and confusion for the nearly half million daily riders. In 2014, 7 train shutdowns will continue, but the MTA promises the upgrades will help make service much more reliable for generations to come. And that is important to our survival. A century ago, the Borough grew with the help of the subways, and

The 7 Train will experience service disruptions this year as the line is upgraded. today, the clanging noise of packed subway trains over Roosevelt Avenue, Liberty Avenue, Jamaica Avenue, Wyckoff Avenue or 31st Street and the whoosh of a passing train under sidewalk grates along Queens Boulevard, Hillside Avenue, or Steinway Street, are the breaths of the Borough. As long as the subways are running, the Borough is living and thriving. Included in this edition is an updated map of subway service in Queens. Free copies of the subway map are available at any subway token booth. For more information on routes and scheduling, check out mta.info or call (718) 330-1234.

Ride The Rails

hough subways and buses crisscross the Borough and are the most common form of public transportation for those living in Queens, they are not the only modes that serve the 2.3 million of us.

The Long Island Rail Road, which has the distinction of being the busiest commuter rail line in the country and the oldest still operating under its original name, serves more than a quarter-million travelers a day between Manhattan and Montauk. Most of those commuters come from Nassau and Suffolk Counties and use Queens as a

viaduct to Manhattan and Brooklyn. 23 of the LIRR’s 124 stations are in the Borough, and it is the only way Queens residents east of Flushing and Jamaica can get around by train. The LIRR’s Jamaica Station is the fourth busiest transit hub in the metropolitan area and third busiest in the City. Jamaica Station is served by

all but one of the railroad’s branches and includes transfers to three subway lines, more than a dozen bus lines and the AirTrain light rail to JFK Airport. The station is also used by commuters living and working in and around Downtown Jamaica. The Port Washington branch, the only one that does not stop in Jamaica, is a primary mode of transit for many commuters from Flushing, Auburndale, Bayside, Douglaston and Little Neck, while lesser-used, but still important sta-

tions serve neighborhoods in Southeast Queens like Hollis, Queens Village and Bellerose along the Hempstead Branch, St. Albans along the West Hempstead Branch and Locust Manor, Laurelton and Rosedale along the Far Rockaway Branch, which terminates in Far Rockaway at the Queens/Nassau border. From those stations, the LIRR’s second terminal at Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn is also accessible. Along the Port Washington branch is the Mets: Willets Point station, serving Citi Field and the U.S. Tennis Center, home of the US Open. Within what the LIRR calls the “City Terminal Zone,” commuters often shell out the extra money at Woodside, Forest Hills and Kew Gardens for what is often a quicker trip into Manhattan than taking the subway. For information on exact schedules, call (718) 217-5477 or go to www.mta. info/lirr.

Get On The Bus

us fare is $2.50, payable with a Metro Card or coins (no pennies). People 65 years or older and people with qualifying disabilities who show proper forms of identification (including a Reduced-Fare MetroCard or a Medicare card) are eligible for reduced fares. Bus stops are located at street corners and have a tall, round sign with a bus emblem and route number. Some stops have bus shelters. All NYC Transit buses are accessible to travelers who are handicapped. Certain bus seats are reserved for people who use wheelchairs, that must be relinquished upon the bus operator’s request. These seats are clearly marked. Although some seats near the front do not have to be given to elderly persons, it is considerate to do so. Buses stop about every two or three blocks. Buses marked “Limited” make fewer stops. Push one of the tape strips located between the windows or stop buttons on the grab bars of the newest buses in order to signal the driver to stop. You should exit at the

rear door to keep out of the way of people trying to board the bus. Do not stand in the stairwell while the bus is in motion. If you pay your fare with a MetroCard, you may transfer free from bus to subway, subway to bus or bus to bus within two hours of the time you pay your fare. Unlimited Ride MetroCard includes all transfers, at no charge. If you pay your fare with coins, you may transfer free between buses with intersecting routes. You must ask the bus driver for a transfer when you pay your fare. The transfer is a single-use MetroCard with a black stripe along the bottom. When you catch your connecting bus, insert the transfer into the bus fare box — black stripe to the right side. For your late night safety and convenience: Request-A-Stop bus service allows you to request to be let off at a location that is not a bus stop and is available from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m., seven days a week. Simply inform the bus operator where you want to get off.

Business Improvement Districts

ueens is a borough full of emerging businesses and economic development. The City helps new store owners get their feet planted and improve underdeveloped areas at the same time by setting up Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) all over the neighborhood. In exchange for a small tax, merchants and property owners are promised a revitalized area by providing services such as increased maintenance and security, as well as in marketing and promotions. As of 2014, there are 68 BIDs in neighborhoods throughout New York City – 12 in Queens – which make up the largest and most comprehensive network of Business Improvement Districts in the nation. The City’s 68 BIDs annually contribute close to $100 million worth of services in neighborhoods across the five boroughs. The number of BIDS citywide is expected to increase with new potential BIDs coming together throughout the five boroughs.. A Business Improvement District is a formal organization made up of property owners and commercial tenants who are dedicated to promoting business development and improving an area’s quality of life. BIDs deliver supplemental services such as sanitation and maintenance, public safety and visitor services, marketing and promotional programs, capital improvements and beautification for the area – all funded by a special assessment paid by property owners within the district. Since its inception more than 20 years ago, the City’s BID program has contributed over $930 million in supplemental services to invigorate our neighborhoods.

So Much to Offer From the Long Island City waterfront to the Nassau County border, Queens provides everything a person could need. The Official Guide to Queens is a great place to discover new things about this great Borough. The annual Blue Book includes everything a Queens resident needs to make it through the day, and to survive the hustle and bustle of life in the Borough. Feel free to use this guide to help you get around, solve problems and learn how to help others. Most importantly, use the 2014 Official Guide to Queens as a starting point to go out and enjoy all that Queens has to offer.
