"Short but important street in Queens"
Newtown Avenue is not a very long street, but it gives access to an important part of Queens. Just one long block from Newtown Avenue is Mt. Sinai Hospital - no, not the one in Manhattan - it's the Mt. Sinai Hospital of Queens. Because the neighborhood is so well established (read: old) parking is always a challenge, particularly since this area is within walking district of the train to Manhattan.
Mt. Carmel Church guards one end of Newtown Avenue - an old established Catholic parish that still has Mass at noon on weekdays.
