Astoria
Astoria is a large commercial and residential neighborhood next to the East River, Long Island City, Sunnyside and Woodside. Astoria offers mid-level price-points for those looking for housing, which is a mix of brick and frame homes, walk-ups and new condo developments – but prices are rising. The neighborhood is generally filled with multi-generational families as well as a new younger artistic crowd, who are attracted by the proximity to the City, the low scale of the neighborhood, as well as the vibrant street life.

Fun Facts
