Considered part of the larger Astoria area, Ditmars Steinway is a relaxed residential neighborhood bordered by the East River to the north. The prevalence of family homes, access to the expansive Astoria Park, and a wealth of dining options make this Queens enclave especially alluring. “Ditmars has a low-rise, residential feel,” says Patrick Smith, a licensed associate real estate broker with Corcoran who has been working in Astoria for 20 years. “On Ditmars Boulevard you have all the great restaurants and shops, access to Astoria Park, and you also have the train line on 31st Street.”
