A hot real estate market with varying price points
Residential enclaves within the neighborhood include Bayside Gables, Bayside Hills, and Bay Terrace. “Things are hot in Bayside right now. There are many more buyers than sellers at the moment,” says Salvatore Sica, an associate real estate broker with Compass who grew up in the area. Nearly 66 percent of residents own their home, and property prices vary drastically. Multibedroom mansions on well-landscaped lots near the water list between $1.6 million to $3.2 million, but are rare to come on the market. Single-family Tudors, Cape Cods and split levels featuring three to five bedrooms range from $950,000 to nearly $2 million. Townhouses and co-ops cost roughly between $210,000 to $850,000. Within Bayside Terrace, a luxury co-op complex known as The Towers at Water’s Edge has resort-style amenities with one-bedroom units typically starting at $385,000.
Single-family condominiums are also a residential option in the Bayside neighborhood.

Waterfront parks with plenty of recreational spaces
Fort Totten, a former Civil War fortress, attracts residents to its historical buildings, scenic green spaces and seasonal pool. Great for birdwatchers, locals can also rent canoes to take out on the bay. “Fort Totten is a staple of the Bayside area. You can go walking or jogging, or play in the park,” says Sica. “They also have a yearly fireworks show. Plus, parking is super convenient.” On the neighborhood’s eastern side, the Brooklyn-Queens Greenway System offers residents miles of biking trails. John Golden Park, which sits on the former estate grounds of the late Broadway producer, has tennis courts and picnic areas. Crocheron Park—the former site of a Gilded Age hotel—is a dog-friendly outdoor space complete with ball fields, pickleball courts and a pond.

Prime eateries and lively bars along Bell Boulevard
Along Bell Boulevard, the neighborhood's main drag—commonly shortened to Bell by locals—residents have their choice of globally-inspired restaurants and bars. Sica recommends the Greek restaurant Taverna Kyclades: “They have the best fresh seafood. And everyone is always very warm and hospitable when you go in,” he says. Locals also head to Uncle Jack's Steakhouse for its seafood platters and dry-aged wagyu steaks. For freshly baked goods in a chic setting, there’s The French Workshop. Other eateries along Bell include Press 195, a sandwich joint featuring hot press sammies and wine, and One Station Plaza, a dog-friendly beer garden right down the street. When the weekend rolls around, Bell becomes a playground for students from Queensborough Community College and young working professionals.
