I agree I will miss this site a lot.
I cannot stand FB/meta, I am barely on it and I briefly joined the 11372 group then had to leave it was so obnoxious.

Thanks for running this site.  Queens res since 2006 but JH only the last 3.5 years and enjoyed reading it. Sorry to see it go.

Can this site be archived anywhere? You're not on https://web.archive.org/
I think that would be a great idea. Especially after 14 years. This is a treasure trove of memories.

I just gave a shout out to this group on this FB group JACKSON HEIGHTS, ASTORIA, WOODSIDE NOSTALGIA & HISTORY.

So many people will be sorry to see the end of JHL. Thanks again. Come visit us here on FB.

Thank you so much for creating and maintaining this site. It has led to so many inspirations, really made my life better and more passionate. It is going to be hard to get it out of my muscle memory to check it in my free moments. Thanks again, I wish you the best.

Sad to hear the site is shutting down. I guess all good things must come to an end.

Can you give me one last insult before the site shuts down?

i suppose i could go classic Monty Python and say "You empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction" before suggesting that "your father smelt of elderberries!" But it's the holidays, and i've actually really enjoyed interacting with you out here over the years. Be well, and happy holidays.

Oh no! I love this JH community forum so much. :(
This website has been a hub of opinions, questions, suggestions and recommendations for as long as I can remember. A very special bond has been created between users and I would hate for that to be lost. So...

I am working on a new forum - Jackson Heights IRL (in real life) at:

www.jacksonheightsirl.com

I am trying to include all the same topics and features of this wonderful site and maybe add a few more. Please share with others so the wonderful community of Jackson Heights can continue to care and support each other online and in real life.

I look forward to seeing you over there to continue sharing news and building a wonderful community - Jackson Heights In Real Life.

Cheers and Happy Holidays!
