Anything East of 42nd Street on Broadway is filled with day laborers and people wandering around from the nearby housing projects. Always crime here! The only assault I had in ten years of Astoria occurred here. Will be a great day when this area is finally razed and developed.

Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced Monday that 74 firearms were taken off the streets at the Greater Allen A.M.E.

The weapons were exchanged for bank cards pre-loaded with cash, with no identification required and no questions asked.
