Suburban perks on the edge of Queens
According to the New York City real estate site Brick Underground, Cambria Heights has the second-best parking in Queens. That may not sound like much to an outsider, but in a city where people spend untold hours looking for a parking spot, it’s a big deal. The area likely enjoys this significant suburban perk in part because Long Island, land of residential living, is on the other side of the neighborhood’s eastern boundary.
Cambria Heights is a quiet residential neighborhood on Queens, NY.
