"The Home of the NY Mets"

This part of Roosevelt Avenue is the former home of the New York Mets. It really is not a bad place to be. Willets Point Blvd area has its mixture of good and bad. Since 2008, the place has been in ruins because of the dismantling of Shea stadium. Once that stadium has been completely dismantled, the area will have a cleaner and more organized look to it.
Pros
  • Mixed bag
Cons
  • Little too dirty in spots

"Busy shopping street!"

Roosevelt Avenue runs along Queens and up to Flushing. There, it is a street where there are shops such as Macy's, Pretty Girl, and other small shops and places to eat. There is heavy foot traffic here at times and many buses as well as the 7 trains stop here. There are residents living nearby but I think it is mostly a commercial area where people come to shop and perform business.

"Stay away on game days"

Crowded and busy is an easy way to describe this area. While the street offers an amazing energy on game days Roosevelt Avenue is home to Shea Stadium (and the new stadium as well). Arthur Ashe Stadium is also nearby and average commuters will likely feel serious pain when the U.S Open roles into town. It does offer a great vibe and a wonderful experience for those visiting the area for games, but overall it's not an area I would visit otherwise, especially when the Mets are in town. The 7 train stops a short distance away which is great for a commuter, but getting on the train during game days can be a true test of patience and restraint.
