Queens's Largest Source of No Broker Fee Apartments! Rodedale & Brookville : Queens Apartments
Neighborhood Information
|
Originally called Fosters Meadows, Rosedale is located in the southwestern corner of the mainland portion of Queens. Housing consists of middle-class one and two-family homes, duplexes and townhouses. Ethnic groups in the neighborhood include Latin Americans, Jews, and Italians. Rosedale has an abundance of fair rents because it is fairly isolated - there is no subway service to Manhattan from this corner of Queens. There is a Rosedale LIRR stop that will take you to Penn Station in about 30 mins. Community activists in 2003 were able to preserve a tract of marsh wetlands along Jamaica Bay that the city had agreed to sell to a developer who was going to build a mall.
Brookville is the local name for the neighborhood immediately north of John F. Kennedy International Airport, named for the stream that runs through the area. (There's a Brookville in Nassau County, so don't confuse them.).
