Flushing Archives

The images in this gallery capture Flushing from the 1950's to the present. Many photos were taken from the same location over this span of time, they show both enduring landmarks and dramatic change. Since starting this site over 4 years ago I have been continuing to get a great response for pictures from my old home town, now averaging about 10,000-20,000 views a month. I will be revising an expanded version of a Flushing History photobook for 2013 so keep posted. Requests and comments are always welcome!

    From June 29, 2007. This incredible structure went up next to the landmark Bowne House (upper left corner of inset). In the courtyard of this 1930's apartment building they actually constructed these condos that appear like barracks. A new level of densification, too bad for the view of the folks behind.
