About this map

Flushing and its surrounding Queens Co and Bronx Co neighborhoods are shown during a period of massive post-war infrastructure expansion. The landscape is defined by the heavy arteries of the Hutchinson River Parkway and Grand Central Parkway, alongside the massive footprint of La Guardia Field. Marine and aviation history is prominent, from the Flushing Airport to the U S Merchant Marine Academy and State Maritime College at Fort Schuyler.
