About this map

The dense residential and industrial landscapes of central and southeastern Queens are meticulously documented here following late-1970s revisions. This survey highlights the critical transportation hubs of the era, dominated by the massive footprint of John F Kennedy International Airport and the intricate tracks of the Long Island Rail Road weaving through established neighborhoods like Richmond Hill and Queens Village. Significant institutional landmarks are scattered throughout the urban grid, including St Johns University, Queens College, and large medical complexes such as the St Albans Naval Hospital.
