"Great place for fireworks watching"

The absolute best thing about Shore Boulevard is Astoria Park. Of course, Astoria Park is one of the best things about living in Queens! Though it can be extremely crowded on almost any nice day in the spring or summer, you just can't beat hanging out here, next to the water, with all the conveniences of having your neighborhood right next door. People are ethnically diverse (and seem to get more so every year) and for the most part are friendly.

Along Shore Boulevard you are on the East River. Just to the south of where you are, the East River meets up with the Harlem River, and they float past Manhattan. It's so close to all that "civilization" but it's far enough away that you don't have to get caught up in it.

"19th Street, the other side of the park"

19th street in Queens New York is, not in and of itself, a wonder or a spectacle. However 19th street is not without its own value. First of all the street runs along side Astoria Park. The park has some historical value and provides breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline. The street is also a great way to get to other major roads via Hoyt avenue. The road runs from the Triboro (recently renamed the Robert Kenedy Bridge) to teh Hell Gate bridge on the north end. Visit the park, it is worth it!

"Shore Blvd is exactly as it sounds"

Shore blvd. is much the same as 19th street with one major exception, it is actually on the shore line of Queens! Shore blvd also borders the historic and relaxing Astoria Park. This area has had Native American sttlements and Dutch settlements we know of as far back as the 1600's! Now, sadly, some of this last smells putrid, especially during the summer, as there are water treatment facilities nearby. Stick to Astoria Park for the views, but don't venture much farther north!
