Durst Old York Library December 16, 1940 COMPLETION OF FRANCIS LEWIS BOULEVARD Francis Lewis Boulevard extends eleven miles across the Borough of Queens from the Belt Parkway near Rosedale at the southeasterly corner of the borough to Whitestone on the north shore. It serves as an important mixed-traffic approach to the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge and on its way across the borough taps the network of east-and-west highways and parkways leading into New York City from Long Island. At its south end it connects with the existing city street system to the Rockaways. From the standpoint of com- mercial traffic, the Boulevard provides a vital link from the south shore to upper New York City, Westchester County and Connecticut by way of the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge, Eastern Boulevard and other connecting arteries. The Topographical Bureau of the Queens Borough President's office in planning Francis Lewis Boulevard joined together several old narrow disconnected roads, some of which dated back to the Revolutionary War and appeared on maps of New York City made by the British General Sir Henry Clinton in 1781. The artery was first mapped in 1912 as Cross Island Boulevard but after the inception of Cross Island Parkway on the Belt System it was renamed in order to avoid confusion.
