Bordered by the well-known Long Island City to the west and Astoria to the north, this area in the western portion of Queens has everything to make it a convenient and interesting place to live and has kept its authenticity! Here are some convenient daily commodities as well as places of interest that you will find around the apartment located at 41st Street and Skillman Avenue :
