Glendale Queens, NY

Residents of North Glendale in Queens don't mind that no one really knows about their neighborhood, because they enjoy an unusual level of privacy and quiet not typical of New York City. Older, beautifully maintained one- and two-family homes for rent line the streets, with newer condos available in renovated brick buildings and warehouses. North Glendale retains a real sense of community, with neighbors holding block parties during the summer and decorating their homes for just about every holiday you can imagine. Shopping options balance small local shops on Myrtle Avenue with convenient chains such as Trader Joe's, the Home Depot, and Staples. When you want to eat out, grab a meal or takeout at chains including Panera Bread and Five Guys, or stop in for a special meal at Zum Stammtisch, a Glendale favorite serving German food so authentic that you may feel surprised to learn you're still in New York when you step outside again.
