Maspeth
Maspeth is home to some of the best residential areas in Queens. The Maspeth Plateau, an elevated area in Western Queens, boasts incredible views of Manhattan’s skyline.
In the heart of Maspeth lies Grand Avenue. A hub for businesses, this busy street has some of the best diners in Queens. The Clinton Diner on Maspeth Avenue was even featured in the 1990 film, Goodfellas.
One of the neighborhoods most cherished spots is Memorial Square, on the intersection of Grand Avenue and 69th Street. The memorial commemorates the 19 firefighters from Maspeth’s FDNY Hazmat 1/Squad 288 who died on 9/11.
