Hello.

My name is Ignacio, and although I grew up in JH and have been living here again for the past ten years, I just now joined this group.  I am a public interest attorney working for Housing Works (you may have seen our thrift stores), and while I used to live in the Queen Anne building, I recently moved to the Griswold.

hi Ignacio, welcome to the site.  I believe there are a few other members here who live in the Griswold.

Hello Everybody!! I posted here once before that my wife and I were moving to Jackson Heights and everybody welcomed us..Thank you.  We finally moved in 3 weeks ago.

I asked a question about bars in the area and how we liked to go out early (happy hour times) and be home early (We are lame).  I read a few past posts and the only places that seem to have what we are looking for are Legends, Cassidy's and the Ready Penny Inn.
I wouldn't consider us beer snobs but I do like a better selection then the usual belly wash I been reading these places serve. Are there any other suggestions or is that it for now.

Hopefully it gets better. I lived in Williamsburg my whole life and with easy access to the city and then the area chinging itself, I got a little spoiled.

not really a beer snob area, for better or worse. a dear friend who works as a vintner in oregon gave a reasonably warm review to novo for wines by the glass; delhi heights bartender actually makes a decent martini and other mixed drinks (with a nibble or two thrown in). but as far as hoppiness? sorry, i am baffled.

Greetings, all.

I've been a JH resident from 1997 to 2002, I moved to Atlanta, GA and just came back this December in JH around 92ND street.... Nothing make me feel home like JH neighbourhood...
I have 2 kids (2 and 7 yrs old). Does anyone can give a name for a good pediatrician.

Thank you

Hi amontez!  Welcome back to Jackson Heights!

Someone else recently posted a similar question regarding pediatricians on another thread here on Jackson Heights Life.  Follow the link below.  If you'd like, go ahead and post your question to that thread.

Hi,  Hope everyone is also enjoying the snow day!  I recently posted for the first time.  I really enjoy this site for keeping up with the neighborhood and look forward to getting to know the area even better.  I still consider myself a lifelong JH resident (moved here when I was an infant) even though my current zipcode states otherwise - it is mostly referred to as East Elmhurst or I even get Flushing a lot.    The one thing I do not miss is the parking.  I was just talking about this the other day where we would actually not take out the car because we did not want to deal with endless task of looking for a spot.  Now I deal with people blocking my driveway.

Parking in the hood is a pain in the a$$. Nice to see that someone else can concur. Keep posting IV1PSM!
