MY NEIGHBORHOOD

My neighborhood is located at Bayside, Queens, New York. Bayside is a classic model for the concept of better city, better lives. This is the topic of the world EXPO 2010. Bayside is a place that located at north-east of New York City, nearby Little Bay and Little Neck Bay. Cross Island Parkway is the main connection between Bayside and Whitestone. And Clearview Expressway is connecting to its south side-Fresh Meadow. East side, it has the LongIsland Expressway to connecting to Long Island. And last at the North side the Throgs Neck Bridge is between Bayside and the Bronx.
Bayside is one of the city has a great environment in New York City. It has many of parks for proving a wonderful rest for its resident. Also Bayside has many broad and flat roads are proving convenience travel. Trees are all around the city, so fresh air is all around the resident. Bayside is a clean city, you will hard to find a piece of paper on the ground. There is a very big difference between Bayside and other cities, Bayside doesn’t have any factories, and this is the reason for proving the best lives to the resident.
Bayside is one of the community has the best opportunity for education. Bayside High School, Cardozo High School and Francis Louis High School are one of the schools standing top in New York City’s education system. Queensborough community college is one of the branches of City University of New York. Many of people are choosing to move to Bayside just because the school district.
Bayside also is one of the powerful cities in economy. Stories, gas stations, and super markets are all over the city. Northern blvd and Bell blvd are the marks of it.
I begin to take a walk from Bay Terrace Mall. Bay Terrace Mall is the largest shopping mall in Bayside. It has book store, super market, cinema, and a lot of cloths store. Bay Terrace Mall has a huge parking lot, its very convenience for consumers. Cross the mall, I am in Bell blvd and 26th Ave, and I decide do point to Bayside High School. Most of houses in Bayside are single family homes. And they also have a huge front yard and back yard. This is residential area, so the street is quiet, but I can see someone is walking with their dogs. 10 minutes later, I reach Bayside High School. In front of the school is a large park with one soccer field and one basketball field, beside the park is a child playground. Students are playing games in the park after school. And the school soccer team is practicing. I keep going, back to Bell blvd and 35th Ave. residential was replaced by business stores. I keep moving on Bell blvd. This is a busy commercial street, and vehicles and pedestrian are full around the street. After Northern blvd, I see residential area again. On Northern blvd, I turn right on 223rd St. I see a lake, people fishing in the lake, and some people jogging beside the lake. I close my eye, and imagine, this will be the most beautiful picture I saw today.
5 minutes later, I reach Queensborough community college. Beside the Queensborough is Cardozo High School. Then I take the bus to go home.
