Jane's Walk NYC 2024: An Anti-Connoisseur's Guide to the Parking Lots of Astoria @11AM
05/04/2024 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM ET
Admission
- Free
Summary
This walk will wind through Astoria, taking guests on a tour that will invite them to consider the impact of parking on a neighborhood, and what the community can do to shape that impact. Guests will learn about and discuss urban retail and the history of parking.
We'll bookend the tour at two grocery stores. The starting location will be the Food Bazaar at Northern Boulevard and 42nd Street, which is suburban in format and auto-oriented. From there we'll walk north on Steinway Street (with discussion of several other notable parking lots en route), and along the commercial strip on 30th Avenue. We'll end at the Key Foods at 33rd Street and 30th Ave, a more pedestrian-oriented store that shows the potential diversity of grocery uses and neighborhood formats.
The walk is 1.2 miles long; comfortable shoes will be helpful.
