A Guide to Flushing in Queens
A GUIDE TO FLUSHING IN QUEENS Ethnic diversity is the hallmark of New York City, and nowhere is this diversity more evident than in Flushing, Queens. Founded in 1645, Flushing, then called Vlissingen, was granted a charter by the Dutch West India Company and became a part of New Netherlands. Subsequent periods of immigration resulted in colonization by English settlers, and more recently by settlers from Taiwan, mainland China, Japan and Korea. The result is an ethnic medley to be savored in its streets, shops, restaurants and cultural institutions. Where is Flushing? Located on western Long Island, Queens is one of the five boroughs of New York City. Established in 1683, it was named for the queen consort, Catherine of Braganza, wife of Charles II. The borough of Queens is divided into four “towns,” Jamaica, Long Island City, Flushing, and Far Rockaway. Unlike the other boroughs, mail in Queens is addressed to the applicable town rather than “Queens, N. Y.” About Flushing The first It’s Easy to Get to Flushing settlers in Flushing were, From either Times Square, or Grand Central Station, oddly enough, take the Number 7 train to the last stop and you will a group of be in the heart of Flushing. Englishmen who arrived in 1645 from Vlissingen in Holland under a patent from the Dutch West Indies Company. Subsequently an influx of Quakers from the English colonial settlements in Massachusetts took place in 1657. With the arrival of the Quakers, Governor Peter Stuyvesant, known as Peg Leg Pete, issued an edict banning all forms of worship other than Dutch Reformed, despite the guaranty of freedom of worship contained in the official Dutch charter. -

City Planning Begins Public Review for 257 Blocks in North
About Us > Press Releases FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE January 20th, 2009 CONTACT: Rachaele Raynoff / Jennifer Torres (City Planning) (212) 720-3471 CITY PLANNING BEGINS PUBLIC REVIEW FOR 257 BLOCKS IN NORTH FLUSHING, QUEENS TO PROTECT NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTER Proposal Creates New Zoning Tool to Prevent Out-of-Scale Single Family Homes January 20, 2009 – City Planning Commissioner Amanda M. Burden today announced the beginning of public review to protect 257 blocks of North Flushing, Queens, one of the Bloomberg Administration’s largest contextual rezonings. The rezoning was undertaken in response to community concerns that recent developments have been out-of-context with established neighborhood character and built fabric. Concurrently, Commissioner Burden announced the creation of a new contextual zoning district, R1-2A, developed to ensure that new single-family houses are consistent with the prevailing neighborhood scale and fabric. Crafted with close consultation from local elected officials, community board members and local civic associations, the proposal exemplifies the Bloomberg Administration’s sustained commitment to protect New York’s neighborhoods by updating decades old zoning to reinforce their built character. “Good planning requires that we recognize and tailor zoning to the unique needs of each one of our neighborhoods. Working closely with the community and Council Members Avella and Liu we have developed a fine-grained rezoning to protect North Flushing, one of the city’s most beautiful, low-density communities” said City Planning Commissioner Amanda M. Burden. “Expanding our toolbox, we have developed a new zoning designation, R1-2A, to ensure better protections for the existing building form and context. Today’s actions underscore the Bloomberg Administration’s commitment to safeguarding our quality of life and to ensuring that future development reflects the character of the city’s neighborhoods. -
