Auburndale
Shopping and dining in Auburndale
One of the highest-rated restaurants nearby is Tang, a Korean restaurant known for traditional and fusion dishes with vegetarian options. “There are different types of food and different ethnic backgrounds in the area,” says Dan Hsuih, an experienced associate broker with Re/Max 1st Choice. “Anything you want to find, you can find it in Auburndale.” Most options line Northern Boulevard, like Café Bench, which serves crepes and espressos. Mythos Authentic Greek Cuisine’s menu features traditional Greek meals. The Oasis Café is a Greek bakery and restaurant that’s been serving the community baklava, coffee and brunch since 1986. When residents want even more options, nearby Flushing, Bayside and Fresh Meadows never run out of new places to eat and shop. Groceries are available at H-Mart, Key Food Marketplace or Marino’s Supermarket.Taking the LIRR to Manhattan
The Auburndale and Broadway stations give Manhattan workers a roughly 50-minute trip to the city. Northern Boulevard cuts through the neighborhood’s center and takes drivers east to Long Island and west farther into Queens. Those who drive to work may take the nearby Clearview Expressway to NYC. MTA buses run up and down Northern Boulevard and Francis Lewis Boulevard.Tudor and Colonial Revival homes
Auburndale’s streets are lined with sidewalks that run in front of multifamily and single-family homes. “Auburndale is mainly single-family houses with condos and co-ops in the north half,” says Anthony Tamboni. “It’s a steady market, for sure.” These houses, often with Tudor, Cape Cod or Colonial Revival designs, usually have small yards and uncovered driveways. Residents park their cars in their driveways, but street parking is common, taking up space on narrow roads. According to Hsuih, homes are often in high demand, ranging from $850,000 to $1.5 million. The occasional brick co-op building has units that can sell for $300,000 to $525,000.Two school districts serve Auburndale
Another major draw to Auburndale is its school districts. Most of the neighborhood is served by New York City Geographic District 25. P.S. 107 - Thomas A. Dooley offers prekindergarten through fifth-grade classes and earns an A-minus from Niche. Next is the A-rated I.S. 025 – Adrien Block for middle school. Flushing International High School gets a B-minus and has English as a new language and Spanish language courses. New York City Geographic District 26 serves the east half of the neighborhood. School options include the A-rated P.S. 162 - John Golden elementary school, M.S. 158 - Marie Curie middle school and Francis Lewis High School.Nearby parks include Kissena and Kissena Corridor
Although Auburndale has little park space, Kissena Park and Kissena Corridor Park are less than 2 miles away. Kissena Corridor Park has six baseball fields, the Ella Fitzgerald Playground and paved basketball and tennis courts. The much larger Kissena Park has the Kissena Golf Course, a cycling track and Kissena Park Playground, all surrounded by over 100 varieties of trees. With over 80 acres to explore, visitors can spend a full day among the trees and fresh air. Tamboni points out Cunningham Park, south of the neighborhood. This park is one of the largest in all of Queens and where people go to hike, bike and wander the over 250 acres of green space. The CAP Index gives the neighborhood a 2 out of 10, with 1 being the lowest possible score.Annual Greek Festival is a big draw
Hsuih says the community visits the St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Shrine Church to enjoy food, games and live music during the annual Greek Festival. Most excitement happens outside the neighborhood, like the Lunar New Year Festival in Queen’s Chinatown, 3 miles east. This festival is a huge draw, featuring parade floats, colorful traditional dress and traditional food. Places of worship within the neighborhood show the community’s diversity, with locations like Hyo Shin Presbyterian Church and Temple Beth Sholom.
