Thanks, I love the everyday things that the average resident see that most tourist never venture into. I'm also in shock how many high-rise's that has been built behind the Long Island City sign. It wasn't that long ago I visit NYC, amazing the amount of development in the past few years.

Thanks for the tour. I do wish that you'd gotten a chance to walk around some of the actual streets and neighborhoods like Vernon-Jackson and Hunters Point. There are some beautiful blocks of brownstones and bustling commercial strips like Vernon Blvd. in LIC, not just new high-rises and warehouses. Maybe I'll try to do a walking tour of my own instead of running through the neighborhood like I do every weekend.

Very nice pics and interesting perspectives.

For those outside NYC, the photos at the beginning and end are actually in Central Queens, in Rego Park. Don't think we've ever had a Rego Park thread.

Nice pics boden. It's been quite a while since I've been in Queens, and surprising to see how much the skyline has changed. Thanks.
