Flushing

Flushing is the biggest Chinatown in the East coast. Major League Baseball team New York Mets' home Citi Field (former Shea) is located along the #7 train as well as U.S. Open's USTA Billie Jean National Tennis Center where the best tennis players from around the world come to compete every September.

Flushing is situated in the heart of Northern Queens in Community District 7.  With more than half of its residents from Asia or of Asian descent, Flushing is a major Asian commercial and cultural center on the East Coast.  Flushing is becoming even more diverse.  Recent new Americans from Central and South America have joined longtime residents of eastern European descent and a small African-American community that has been in Flushing for generations.

Main Street is considered Downtown Flushing.  Several financial institutions have multilingual employees and are clustered within a radius of a few blocks.  Flushing's inter-modal accessibility by numerous bus lines, a subway line with local and express service, the Long Island Rail Road and by car makes it one of Queens most significant commercial hubs. The commercial district is internsely crowded with national chain stores, as well as locally-owned shops and restaurants.  In addition to Main Street, other retail areas in Flushing are located on Roosevelt Avenue, Kissena Boulevard, and Northern Boulevard, the site of the historic Flushing Town Hall.
