Woodhaven New York Homes for Sale

Claiming famous residents from yesterday and today like Oscar-winning Adrien Brody and Mae West, Woodhaven is bisected by Jamaica Avenue. Along with Woodhaven Boulevard and Atlantic Avenue, this major transportation artery also provides an excellent location for many small shops and locally owned businesses. Boundaries include the public green space of Forest Park on the north and Ozone Park on the south. This densely populated Queens neighborhood is the epitome of cultural diversity, and local residents are quick to point with pride to the "melting pot" characteristics of their home. One landmark that lingers from the 1800s is a clocktower that was once attached to a cutlery factory. Most homes are colonial, both attached and unattached, blending with some single-family Victorians. Some cooperative apartments have sprung up along Woodhaven Boulevard and Park Lane South.
