==Character== | |||
Steinway is a heavily urbanized area with copious amount of parkland. [[Steinway Park]] takes up the entire western portion of the neighborhood (from Concord Avenue to Franklin Street/the Humboldt River). All of the land north of Dukes Drive is also reserved as greenspace. Central Steinway is home to a slew of private houses, complete with their own garages, as well as a few apartment buildings. Finally, the [[Steinway Projects]], the only housing project in [[Dukes]], can be found in the western area of the neighborhood. | |||
==Points of interest== | |||
The [[Steinway Beer Garden]] can be found within the neighborhood, near the intersection of Morris Street and Ticonderaga Avenue. | |||
==Influence== | |||
Steinway draws heavily from the northwestern neighborhoods of Queens, New York, such as the aforementioned Astoria. The Steinway Projects are almost undoubtedly a virtual representation of the [[wikipedia:Queensbridge, Queens|Queensbridge Project]] in [[wikipedia:Long Island City, Queens|Long Island City]]. | |||
==Transport== | |||
The [[Liberty City Subway]] has a [[Dukes Boulevard Station|stop]] at the intersection of Dukes Boulevard and Morris Street (at the border with [[East Island City]]); however, it is under construction, so it is not in service. The closest in-service LTA station is [[Huntington Street LTA|Huntington Street]], in [[Cerveza Heights]]. | |||
