    "We have the best live music venue in New York — Terraza 7, right here in Queens. We also have one of the finest Olympic swimming pools in Flushing Meadows–Corona Park. Kissena Park is the best place in Queens to appreciate nature, with the presence of foxes and migratory birds. We are the hope and character of New York City"

    "They’d like to see other neighbors walking their pets. Neighbors don’t usually talk to each other and there’s very few patches of grass for dogs to walk on. I’m in Barclay and parson and that’s how it is here. There are other parts of Flushing which are real nice and better maintained. All in all I feel safe in flushing, more so than most other parts of New York. So you will enjoy walking your pet peacefully. Also there are barely any rats. In 3 years I’ve only come across four at most here in flushing and I walk everyday. Do you don’t have to worry about your pet getting a disease that way. Beware though of the endless spits everywhere. It’s gross "
