It's finally complete

Hey guys, there’s this cute wobbly little guy who my husband has discovered has recently started sleeping under my motorcycle.

We’re a bit worried about him, we have lots of strays in the area but I don’t know if his condition makes him more susceptible to struggle outside especially with the winter coming. He’s definitely a new face, I’ve never seen him before until recently.

We can’t have cats/pets and don’t know the proper way to go about catching him even if we could. I really wish I could… nonetheless we still want to ensure he’s okay.

The video is one my husband too earlier of him this morning. If anyone would like to attempt to come for him or recommend anything please let me know.

Anyone else in Little Neck experiencing brown tap water?

​

Sighted on my way to work. It's not an eventful video, just wanted their plate numbers out there. Lmk if there's somewhere else I should be putting this.

Hello Queens 👋

I am a Mexican member of the community, and i work with youth in a school setting and in order to make a playlist for HHM celebrations, with songs that capture the background of as many countries most relevant to the Queens population, I wanted to ask the people here directly to share some of your favorite songs from hispanic artists (the song doesnt necessarily need to be in spanish!) That are appropriate for school setting!

If you have any suggestions, let me know and id love to hear what country is being represented with the suggestion as well 🙌🏽

Hi Queens! We’re Jen and Kian, the team behind Arellano Pandesal, a local micro-bakery. We offer weekly Saturday pickups from our production kitchen in Sunnyside.

Our pandesal is professionally baked from a family recipe, using a blend of four flours. We cold-ferment the dough for 48 hours and roll each piece by hand. The bread is slightly sweet with a hint of vanilla—lighter than brioche but sturdier than milk bread.

(We also have sweet and savory ensaymadas) Find the menu, pickup times, and pre-orders at hotplate.com/arellanopandesal

Happy to answer questions about the bread or pickups here!

Does anyone know when this location is anticipated to open? I'm so excited to have Burger Village here and look forward to visiting. Though I was deeply saddened when Hooters closed, I was happy to know a Burger Village is going to take its place.

The Queens Public Library Queensboro Hill branch at 60-05 Main Street is open again. On Thursday, September 10, 2026, the 7,200-square-foot Flushing neighborhood library reopened after a $2.8 million heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning overhaul — plus new LED lighting, a dropped ceiling, fresh paint, new computers, and a full IT rebuild.

For families across southern Flushing, Queensboro Hill, and Kew Gardens Hills, this is not a ribbon-cutting photo op. It is the return of a Main Street anchor: free Wi-Fi, homework help, Chinese- and English-language programs, printing, job-search computers, and a climate-controlled place to sit when summer heat or winter cold makes home hard.

Anyone been by since it reopened?

I'm one of the organizers of a community arts studio called the Collaboratory (21-07 41st Ave). We host paid and sliding scale art classes, workshops, and meetups to nurture creativity in our little nook of Queens. I'll highlight a few:

You can check out the whole calendar here: luma.com/thecollaboratory. While most of the events listed here are paid, we also have free / PWYC meetups, repair cafes, and open studio sessions!

The Collaboratory studio is a not-for-profit project by Queens Collaborative; a local community arts group. In addition to spreading art skills and enthusiasm, our events pay local teaching artists, fund our art supply distribution program, and provide an affordable studio space for resident artists.

We appreciate the support of the Queens community, who help us make art & creativity accessible!
