Create, located on 30th Avenue, to open a second shop on Ditmars Blvd

createMarch 6, 2015 By Michael Florio

A 30th Avenue sandwich shop will be venturing over to the other side of Astoria.

Create, located at 36-03 30th Ave, will be opening a second shop at 29-21 Ditmars Blvd, according to Mario Gonzalez, the manager.

Gonzalez said the menu will be the same as Create’s, which opened in 2011. Therefore, the new eatery will offer items such as sandwiches, faro bowls, quinoa bowls, fruits, salads, wraps, burgers and a juice bar. Create is known for offering a selection of fresh, healthy options.

The name of the Ditmars Blvd store has yet to be determined.

Gonzalez said construction, which began last week, should take six months to complete.

The location was previously Vino di Vino, a wine bar that closed in early 2014. The wine bar was run by the owner of Trattoria L’incontro,

“The rent went up and I didn’t want to deal with it anymore,” said Rocco Sacramone, owner and chef, at the time of the closing.

Op-Ed | Four years after Hurricane Ida, Queens deserves real climate resilience

Sep. 2, 2025 By Assembly Member Jessica González-Rojas

Four years ago, Hurricane Ida tore through our neighborhoods of East Elmhurst, Corona and Jackson Heights, leaving behind devastation we will never forget. We lost neighbors to the floodwaters. Families saw their homes destroyed, their basements wiped out, their lives upended. Immigrant families—so many of them undocumented—were hit the hardest, often excluded from relief altogether. Ida was not just a storm; it was a wake-up call.
