Just north of Astoria, Ditmars Steinway is a popular neighborhood for those searching for affordable apartments in New York.
The Steinway and Sons piano factory calls this community home. Visitors are encouraged to tour its showroom as well as the Steinway Mansion, which was once owned by one of the founder’s sons. In addition to piano making, Ditmars Steinway has a bustling business district that’s dotted with bakeries, small businesses, and Greek-inspired restaurants.
When it comes to commutes, locals are comforted by the direct access to N & W train services. Astoria Park – the largest green space in Astoria – is a scenic spot with views of the East River, Hell Gate Bridge, and Randalls Island. LaGuardia Airport is only a 10-minute drive east on Interstate 278.
