THE QUEENS NEW YORKER EPISODE 4: LONG ISLAND CITY
Subscribe:
Incorporated as a city in 1870, Long Island City was originally the seat of government of the Town of Newtown, before becoming part of the City of Greater New York in 1898. In the early 21st century, Long Island City became known for its rapid and ongoing residential growth and gentrification, its waterfront parks, and its thriving arts community.[2] The area has a high concentration of art galleries, art institutions, and studio space.[3] Long Island City is the eastern terminus of the Queensboro Bridge, the only non-tolled automotive route connecting Queens and Manhattan. Northeast of the bridge are the Queensbridge Houses, a development of the New York City Housing Authority and the largest public housing complex in the Western Hemisphere.
Long Island City is part of Queens Community District 1 to the north and Queens Community District 2 to the south.[1] It is patrolled by the New York City Police Department's 108th Precinct.[4] Politically, Long Island City is represented by the New York City Council's 26th District.[5]
