Jackson Heights is one of Queens' most celebrated neighborhoods — a designated historic district of 1920s garden apartment buildings, and one of the most diverse communities in the country. Roosevelt Avenue hums with shops and restaurants, while the interior blocks offer quiet, courtyard-lined streets.
The neighborhood's dining scene spans South Asian, Latin American, and Himalayan cuisines, and its transit hub makes it one of the best-connected corners of Queens.
