Forgotten New York

GLENDALE ’22

I’m not ready to post regularly yet, till I get a machine of my own, and I may have to lean heavily on my archives for awhile.

Here’s a piece of a 1922 Hagstrom map of Queens, showing Glendale. Though the numbering of Queens streets began in 1915, it happened neighborhood by neighborhood in a gradual process. It could be that Glendale was the last to make the switch.

How many of these streets have retained their old names and were not numbered?
