John Barston reports that David Mace will lead a wandering in Jackson Heights on Tuesday, May 15, that begins at 52nd Street and Roosevelt Avenue and ends at the Arthur Ashe Stadium. The walk is approximately 4½ miles.
For a shorter walk, there are subway stops along the way to go back to Grand Central Station.
There are 138 languages spoken here. We will start in an Irish neighborhood. Then we will pass through Korean, Thai, Tibetan, Indian, Ecuadorean and Colombian neighborhoods.
The shops are all family owned – no Gap or Polo stores. The sights, sounds and smells are what will make this wandering exciting.
Join us on the 8:36 a.m. train out of Darien or the 8:39 a.m. out of Noroton Heights.
We will gather at the Information Booth in Grand Central Station before taking the subway to Jackson Heights.
