Welcome to Jackson Heights

Jackson Heights is renowned for its historic contributions to urban planning, particularly its Greystone District, where the Garden City concept of large residential complexes around private gardens was first realized. The neighborhood is one of the most ethnically diverse communities in the U.S. and has recently attracted young professionals seeking green spaces, affordable housing, and easy access to Manhattan, thanks to multiple subway lines converging at Roosevelt and Broadway. Jackson Heights blends single- and multi-family homes with large co-op apartment buildings. A National Historic District, the area also features Little India, known for its South Asian boutiques, restaurants, and imports.
