Memories of a Bygone Era: The Vintage Photos of Jamaica, Queens in the 1960s

The 1960s was a significant time of change and development for the neighborhood of Jamaica, Queens, New York City. Demographically, Jamaica, Queens in the 1960s was a largely African American and working-class neighborhood. The African American population increased significantly in the 1950s and 1960s as a result of the “Great Migration” of African Americans from the South to the North. There were also a significant number of immigrants from the Caribbean, particularly from Jamaica, who settled in the neighborhood and contributed to its cultural diversity.

Jamaica was a bustling commercial center in the 1960s, with many small businesses and shops lining the streets. The neighborhood was known for its lively music scene and nightlife, with several jazz and R&B clubs, and a thriving Caribbean music scene.

The 1960s was a decade of urban renewal and redevelopment in many American cities, and Jamaica was no exception. During this time, many of the older buildings and homes in the neighborhood were demolished to make way for new housing projects, highways, and public transportation.

The construction of the JFK airport and the Van Wyck Expressway had a significant impact on Jamaica in the 1960s, both in terms of development but also in terms of displacement of residents and businesses.

The neighborhood was also affected by the social and political turmoil of the 1960s. The Civil Rights Movement, the rise of Black nationalism and the anti-war movement all had an impact on the community. Jamaica was also the site of several race riots during the 1960s, reflecting the growing racial tension and discrimination in the area.

A Whirlwind, Round-the-World Food Tour of Queens

Amazon passed on it, and few travelers stop there, but New York City’s most diverse borough has sights worth seeing and restaurants that put it at the center of the city’s foodie universe.

Supported by

By Seth Kugel

• July 1, 2019

The $3.50 kebab was supposed to be a stopgap measure, a placeholder for a lunch that would have to wait until after an appointment in Manhattan.

Neither the foil-wrapped sandwich nor the dumpy corner shop was much to look at. But the first bite — moist ground lamb laced with onion and a jolt of spice, wrapped in pillowy naan and doused with a Pakistani cucumber-yogurt sauce — stopped me short. It was the best thing I had eaten in a month. (And, pizza slices aside, the cheapest.) I sat down to savor it, then walked across a pedestrian-clogged plaza, past a Tibetan dumpling truck and a samosa-filled shop window before entering the subway. Three stops later I was in Midtown, easily making my appointment.

I was using an easy trick for finding delicious cheap meals in New York City: Eat in Queens. Though the city’s biggest borough may be home to Kennedy and La Guardia airports, most travelers fly in and head for the glamour of Manhattan and the bright, shiny objects of hipster Brooklyn. Alas, their wallets are the lighter for it.

The kebab shop, by the way, is called Kabab King , but there’s no pressing need to jot that down. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of others of its kind, unceremoniously serving unadulterated national cuisine to working-class compatriots.

[This story is part of our package about Queens, New York City’s most diverse borough. It also includes 36 Hours in Rockaway Beach, and a review of the new TWA Hotel, by our architecture critic, Michael Kimmelman.]

Whether you’re coming from another state, or country, or (in the case of Brooklyn) world, you have two options: Choose your own adventure by hopping off the 7 train at a random stop and following your nose, or do exhaustive research. If you tend toward the latter, start by looking for Queens articles on Eater , Serious Eats , Grub Street and this publication’s Hungry City column. Then explore specialized publications like Chopsticks and Marrow , Culinary Backstreets’ Queens page , and Edible Queens . For the deepest dive of all, click on any Queens neighborhood in the vast listings of Dave Cook’s Eating in Translation blog.

Joe DiStefano, the author of 111 Places in Queens You Must Not Miss and the creator of Chopsticks and Marrow, deftly sums up the borough’s culinary appeal: “If I want to eat Thai food, I eat where Thai people live and work and play and pray: Elmhurst,” he said. “When you go there, you’re getting a huge degree of specificity. You don’t go to where the menu is an encyclopedia, you go where ‘all we do is chicken and rice.’ That analogy holds true in every neighborhood in Queens,” he added. “ ‘We’re a Korean barbecue restaurant but our specialty is kalbi. Or we do Korean sashimi or we do just porridge and we don’t care.’”

There’s far more to do in Queens than eat, which is lucky, because you certainly want to have something to do between meals. What follows is a humble sample of my recent food adventures in three areas, plus a handful of suggestions for pre- and postprandial activities.

Jackson Heights and Elmhurst

Walk east from the Jackson Heights-Roosevelt Avenue subway stop, and you’ll pass Mexican taco trucks and Colombian bakeries; north, and it’s South Asian sweets shops and Himalayan momo trucks; southeast and you’ll pass a Chinese supermarket on your way to some of (most of?) the best Thai food in New York. If this is not the most diverse neighborhood in the world, it’s at least the most diversely delicious.

As you stroll, occupy yourself by shopping for saris and spices on 74th Street, admiring the prewar buildings of the Jackson Heights Historic District, or having a drink at Terraza 7 , a quirky, thumb-sized Colombian bar featuring eclectic live music. But the star nonfood-related attraction is a few stops east on the 7 train: Corona’s Louis Armstrong House Museum , the place where the trumpeting legend lived for three decades, frozen in time from the 1970s and open for tours Wednesday through Sunday.

But mostly you’ll eat, which is how I lured my friends Lee and Caryn and their two teenage daughters to join me one afternoon. We met up at Diversity Plaza, an accurate, if cloying, name for the pedestrianized block of 37th Road I mentioned earlier, in the South Asian business district of Jackson Heights. Our first stop was Namaste Tashi Delek Momo Dumpling Palace , a decidedly unpalatial eatery in a dingy basement where curries are sold alongside lottery tickets. On our visit workers were tossing pallets around just off the cramped dining room.

“This is what you’ve dragged us out here for?” my friends didn’t quite say as we found a seat at a table near the counter. But then came jhol momos: tidily crimped, doughy dumplings swimming in a tomato-and-sesame broth spiced up with chiles and Nepalese hog plum powder (eight for $7). They were good, but not as much fun as the steamed beef momos ($1 cheaper), which we dressed up with three sauces of varying heat, spooned out of glasses capped with plastic coffee lids.

Jackson Heights is also known as a Colombian neighborhood, and the country’s largely chile-free, hearty and accessible cuisine includes great snack food: empanadas that pack meat or other fillings inside a fried cornmeal shell (try them at Empanada Spot, from $1.50); cheesebreads like pandebonos (Miracali, $1.25); and summertime fruit, ice and condensed milk treats called cholados for around $6. (I like the ones at Delicias Colombianas on 82nd Street near 37th Avenue.)

52 Places to Go in 2019

A starter kit for escaping into the world.

But I’ve been to all those places countless times, so I dragged Lee, Caryn and company to the adjoining East Elmhurst neighborhood to eat at Cali Aji , which a Colombian friend had recommended. A few eyebrows were raised (in a friendly way) when our non-Latino group goofily paraded into the small, homey spot that looks like a converted pizza shop. We feasted on sobrebarriga ($13) — a slab of brisket in a tomato-based sauce that, dressed differently, would have felt at home at a Seder or barbecue joint — and several seafood dishes. It’s also a good place to try juice made from the lulo — a citrusy fruit that looks like a persimmon on the outside and a quadrisected green tomato on the inside, and was a hit with everyone. The somewhat unlikely highlight, however, were the tostones, which were so perfectly round, hot and crisp that they even convinced Lee, whom Caryn referred to as an “avowed hater” of the fried green plantains, to reconsider.

Mexican food is tricky business in this area, where, along Roosevelt Avenue, some spots exist more as Corona dispensaries for tired workers than culinary temples. That’s why I was hesitant to take some friends to the Crus-Z Family Corp restaurant (sometimes known as Family Cruz online). But doubt faded when our server brought out warm, slightly greasy tortilla chips and dirty scarlet chile de árbol salsa that packed deliciously short-lived heat. We over-ordered — pozole and a packed cemita sandwich among our unfinished choices — but the highlight was a platter with four samples of goat tacos ($3.50 each): moist shredded barbacoa; an “enchilada” or chile-marinated version of the same; the surprisingly tasty panza (stomach); and “rellena,” coagulated blood with jalapeños and onion, my unlikely favorite.

I brought the group next to the cafe side of La Gran Uruguaya restaurant, just a few blocks away, for the most Uruguayan dessert possible: chajá ($5.25). Vanilla cake with peaches and dulce de leche is buried in nondairy whipped cream studded with chunks of meringue ($3 for a small piece). I’ve never seen it anywhere in the city except on these few blocks of 37th Avenue, where the neighborhood’s Uruguayan eateries are concentrated.

You’d need a week to explore the Thai offerings found largely in Elmhurst, but the place to start is the south side of Broadway between 81st and 82nd streets, home to two specialized restaurants, Eim Khao Mun Kai for that chicken and rice dish Mr. DiStefano mentioned, and Moo Thai Food , which serves pork only. Down the block is Lamoon , which opened last year and specializes in northern Thai cuisine and makes food writers swoon. Order anything that includes nam prik noom, a Northern Thai “young chili dip,” in the description. The ingredients of my second favorite Thai dish in town, sai aua, include an aggressively spicy sausage made with pork, pig ear, lemongrass, lime leaves and cilantro. (My favorite is miang kah-na, dried pork, onion, peanuts and chunks of peel-on lime wrapped in Chinese broccoli leaves. It’s $11 at Paet Rio on the same block, but I’m partial to the $9.95 version, spelled ming ka-na, a few blocks away at Kitchen 79 .)

Astoria and Long Island City

The two neighborhoods closest to Manhattan are also the ones you could visit even on a diet, stopping at the Museum of the Moving Image , MoMA PS1 ’s contemporary art exhibits, and the Noguchi Museum , dedicated to the work of the 20th-century sculptor Isamu Noguchi. Long Island City is also home to Queens’s lone Michelin star (versus 98 in Manhattan and Brooklyn) earned by Casa Enrique . It’s delicious. Skip it.

Instead, dive into traditionally Greek, now polyglot Astoria, starting with a startlingly non-greasy $8.95 pork gyro at BZ Grill or, even better, their sandwich made with loukanika, a Greek sausage stuffed with pork and leeks and fragrant with red wine. Others will tell you to hit an old school Greek taverna next, but to me the unique Astoria Greek experience is at Astoria Seafood , where I took two out-of-town visitors: my brother Jeremy and our friend Len. The day before, Jeremy told us, he had met a friend for lunch in Manhattan and had a mediocre $16 turkey burger. That was a wrong that had to be made right.

From the street, Astoria Seafood looks like an average neighborhood fish market. But the inside is as descript as the outside is non-. Boisterous lunch customers pack tables, blabbing in Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Greek and English. Trays of fish line the back, and workers yak behind a counter filled with prepared dishes like spanakopita and seafood rice.

“Pull the bag inside out and use it as a glove,” the man behind the counter said, directing me to pick out my own fish, which I did: a $12 slab of swordfish, $11 for eight chunky scallops, and a bargain $4 for a slippery handful of calamari. I dropped it off with him, and minutes later, my purchase reappeared at our table, grilled and doused in olive oil, minced garlic and several jolts of vinegar. The caramelized tentacles of the squid were crunchy outside and silky inside; the swordfish was impossibly juicy. With drinks and sides, our bill came to $48: the equivalent of one lame Manhattan turkey burger each.

You could go Egyptian or Brazilian or more Colombian in Astoria, but for my next visit, I took my friends Zack and Carolina and their young kids to Ukus , an extraordinarily casual Bosnian restaurant where we were greeted, waited on, cooked for and served by the same somberly friendly man. Beverages were self-serve — we tried the Cockta soda, a citrusy, less cloying version of Dr Pepper, and thick Croatian pear juice. Ukus’s family-friendliness was tested when 5-year-old Clara began shooting spitballs, but neither our multitalented server nor the other customers batted an eye.

We shared a $6.50 begova corba, a chicken and rice soup just like what your grandmother would have made, were she Bosnian, and five beef kebab/sausages called cevapi, served inside pita bread and ready to be doused in ajvar (a red bell pepper condiment) or kajmak (a fresh cheese spread) — a bargain at $7.50.

We also had a dense dessert called a Russian hat, in this case a yellow cake buried inside shaved coconut and drizzled with chocolate syrup, but a better idea would have been to up the international quotient by heading over to Point Brazil for some tangy Brazilian passion fruit mousse ($3) and coffee.

Flushing and beyond

No part of Queens presents a more bafflingly spectacular array of restaurant options than Flushing’s Chinatown and the heavily Korean neighborhood of Murray Hill, easily complemented by the digestion-aiding (or at least digestion-neutral) attractions, situated in and around Flushing Meadows Corona Park, home to the Unisphere and other less-well-maintained structures from the 1964 World’s Fair, as well as the Queens Zoo , Queens Museum and eastward, the Queens Botanical Garden . (The park is also home on Saturdays to the Queens Night Market , open April to August and for a month in the fall. It features food vendors from Norway to Singapore to Puerto Rico, and a crowd diverse in age and origin.) Flushing, a town merged into New York City in 1898, has several historic buildings you can visit on specific days, including the 17th-century Bowne House (Wednesdays), the Queens Historical Society (Tuesdays and weekends), and the Quaker Meeting House (Sundays).

I had three meals in the Flushing area, each of them nothing like the other. My first stop was a splurge, Xiang Hotpot , on the second floor of the New World Mall and, like a portal to a different universe, a palatial China-themed hall halfway between elegant and raucous, where on a Sunday night a friend and I were the only non-Asians.

The fun of a hotpot restaurant is that you cook your own food, in our case pork meatballs, pig kidney, black tofu, shrimp paste with bamboo and (because I couldn’t resist) a bullfrog. Here, the built-in pots are divided, in modified yin-yang style, allowing you to choose two soup bases including the “special spicy pot,” with chiles, Sichuan peppercorns and globs of melting beef tallow. (Beef tallow is a standard cooking fat for hotpot restaurants, just as it used to be for McDonald’s French fries and still is for Belgian street fries, for deliciously crisp results.)

The rest of the fun is that sauce bar, where you can whip up your own dipping bowls based in soy or sesame or seafood sauce, say, and adding ingredients like ground peanuts, cilantro or red chiles. Despite the near-infinite combinations, it’s really hard for even the most amateur sauce maker (me) to make something that isn’t delicious. The cost, at just over $120 for two (with tip), is a worthwhile splurge.

My guide to Murray Hill was a Korean-American dentist and Flushing local, Ester Linton, who suggested we have the knife-cut noodle soup called kalguksu at Dae Sung Kal Guk Su . That the noodles are cut (into delicate, silky strands) is an important detail, for we also ordered sujebi, a hand-torn noodle soup traditionally associated with lower classes. “Ah, you like the peasant food,” Ester told me when I indicated a preference for the sujebi. But it was actually a reaction to the variety: Whereas our kalguksu had come in plain, light broth with short-neck clams (delicious), the sujebi came with fish cakes and was jazzed up with spicy broth (more delicious). Both soups were $13.99, and were plenty for two or three.

Ester also brought us to Myung San to try ganjang gaejang ($19.95), raw crab in a fishy, salty, soy-sauce-based marinade. The dish, she explained, is known as a “rice thief,” since once the meat is gone, soaking the rice in the remaining marinade pooled in the crab shell yields results so allegedly delicious that Koreans cannot stop eating it.

I had a different reaction and declare the dish innocent of all charges, and kind of disgusting. But if everything you try in Queens suits your palate, you’re probably doing something wrong.

Tour & Street Photography Workshop Reviews

SNYC has had hundreds of very satisfied customers from all over the world on our tours and workshops! See their reviews here and on Trip Advisor.

Review by John, United Kingdom

I really do need to say a big thank you for taking me on board and guiding me through the streets of New York. I have started to look at the photos and I am reflecting on the time I spent with you. As I reflect, I realise that what you have to offer is invaluable and goes well beyond simply identifying possible photo opportunities. New York was really my first attempt at Street Photography and you taught me so much. I know I was probably more focused on the buildings than the people but I did take in everything you said and I did learn a lot. I came home much wiser and a much better photographer for what you taught me. In the days after the workshop, I found myself using what you had taught me and more importantly looking at what was in front of me with a completely new perspective. I came home a much better photographer and for that I will always be grateful. As I think back, I will become increasing appreciative of the time you spent taking me to the boxing club, the bar and the street photographer. This added a completly new dimension to my experience and added much depth to my awareness and experiences of the city. Thinking back, these were invaluable occasions and I find myself talking all the time about them. They have certainly become a focal point of my discussions with people. I love being able to say that I met local artists and saw things a typical tourist may not see. I would love to return some day and have you show me more. You may be interested to know that The New York Times published an article on Thursday 8th Dec about Advent Calendars. The relevance is that they talk about the most expensive one being one produced by Tiffany which is based on the “Equals Pi” work of Basquiat. I was so pleased that you had introduced him to me and had taken me to see the art at his studio. I do not care about the Advent Calendar at $150,000 but I am so pleased to be able to say I was at the door and I saw the work on the wall. A big thing. Thank you so much again, for everything. You really did make a difference to my skills, my perspective and my insights to the world of art. December 2021

Review by Barbara, Queens, NY

Excellent Experience - It was great pleasure to spend time with Leanne during “Seeing with New Eyes - Midtown Manhattan Street Photography Workshop”. I live in NYC but was always fascinated by street photography and was curious how certain photographic effects were achieved. This workshop helped me to see my city with totally new eyes as Leanne shared her vast knowledge and provided me with great tools to practice. I discovered the value of reflections, contrast, patterns, lines, and I also have learned how to take pictures of people. I am certainly interested in exploring this more as constant movement of pedestrians and catching face expressions of strangers is something that I am interested in. I highly recommend this workshop and I am also looking forward to participating in Chinatown or SoHo workshop. Thank you Leanne!

Grateful for this company! Flying into town is always a pleasure knowing I'll have a ride ready to take me wherever I'm going. The drivers are all professional and have comfortable clean cars and most importantly, always take the fastest routes. Amilton is great. He was kind enough to give me recommendations of the best of the best of NY. I highly recommend their services :) Safe driving!

Had a few mishaps, but I will honestly say the owner's heart is in the right place and he seems dedicated to customer service. I believe he will be able to resolve issues with his new website, and will be able to deliver great service with a personal touch. Ultimately arrived at the airport on time, in a great vehicle, and with a courteous driver...which is a rarity in NYC.

Such a great ride, very educational, super nice professional comfortable experience. Thanks for the rides!

THEN AND NOW IN QUEENS

I should take more advantage of the cache of Queens photos I acquired during my research for the book I wrote with the Greater Astoria Historical Society, Forgotten Queens. Many of these photos show interior scenes. I have already taken advantage of this relative wealth on a couple of occasions, notably in 2019 . Today, though, I’ll take the concept a step further and show the evolution of the sites from the 1930s to today….

Some of the photos in my cache have convenient dates. This was an American Legion hall at 41-54 69th Street, which is on the west side of the street a little north of Woodside Avenue. The photographer is labeled “Somach.” I know little about Somach Photography; other photos from this era were taken by E.E. Rutter , and before him, Eugene Armbruster and Percy Loomis Sperr . I have been inspired by those three photographers more than any others. However, on today’s post, none of the photos are my own; I took modern scenes from Google Street View.

Nothing much is revealed here on April 14, 1938, except the checkered tablecloths, wood bar, tables and chairs. A pinball machine is in the back, and a mounted deer head is on the wall. (The Deerhead Diner was situated on Astoria Boulevard until 2000 or so.)

The photo is labeled “Connecting Highway Queens.” That’s an indicator that…

…the city had plans for the site. NYC’s traffic czar Robert Moses had tabbed the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway to run north here to bring traffic to the Triboro Bridge, running along the New York Connecting Railroad and splitting in tow to get around St. Michael’s Cemetery . The American Legion Hall was razed a year or two after the photo was taken, and the site looks like this these days.

Meanwhile, over at 98-17 Astoria Boulevard (the address is on a blackboard on a table) we have what was quite likely a drugstore, as a sign saying “prescriptions” attests at the upper left. Bottled lotions dominate the glass counter on the left, while on the right we see a similar case, but part of it holds Kodak film. Ads for Vaseline and Kotex are at the center near the ceiling. There’s boxed candy and some wine bottles on the right. In the center is a weighing machine and at the table, a glass jar filled with straws. It’s quite likely that the drugstore also had a soda fountain (I think my collection of photos has one or two).

I had hoped to see what the drugstore looks like on the soutside from the Municipal Archives tax photos from 1940. However the drugstore was gone from 98-17 Astoria by then. The Plaza Market had replaced it by then.

By 2018, there’s no trace of either, as a beauty salon occupies the site. Like liquor stores or delis, some beauty parlors have no need of identifying themselves.

This is fun and I’ll come back to then and now from time to time.

MONUMENTAL ELS

West 96th street bridge, upper west side.

Last photo: the car on the right has a well-developed running board. The car on the left much less so but still there. Interesting that cars no longer have running boards. Any explanation?

But you can buy them as add-ons? What gives? https://runningboardwarehouse.com/c/running-boards/

Looks like the pharmacy is actually to the right of the fruitstore . See the RX clearly on the corner sign. Maybe an address error was made?

John Ulrich,

I see w “W” for Whalen ?

It sure is.

https://s3.amazonaws.com/icptmsdata/w/e/s/t/weston_brett_340_2003_412005_displaysize.jpg

The script W matches the Whelan chain. The drug store was definately there

Also, the Vaseline ad is for Vaseline Hair Tonic!

The American Legion hall looks similar to military veterans meeting places all over the world. A place to have a drink and tell war stories.

Louis Armstrong House Museum

About the landmark.

One of the world’s most renowned jazz musicians and entertainers; Louis Armstrong lived in this modest Queens home from 1943 until his death in 1971. In 1983, his widow Lucille willed the building and its contents to New York City for the creation of a museum and study center devoted to Armstrong’s career and the history of jazz.

The house is a gem frozen in time, as if the Armstrongs have just stepped out. The museum offers daily guided tours to visitors from around the world and features a variety of programs, including concerts, lectures, and seminars.

The Louis Armstrong House was named a National Historic Landmark in 1976 and a New York City Landmark in 1988.

Plan your visit to the Louis Armstrong House Museum 34-56 107th Street, Corona (Queens), NY – louisarmstronghouse.org

The Conservancy would like to thank the staff at the Louis Armstrong House Museum and our tour guides David Reese, Curator and Jennifer Walden Weprin, Director of Marketing. The Museum is administered by Queens College, City University of New York. Photos courtesy of the Jack Bradley Collection. Photos and audio courtesy of the Louis Armstrong House Museum.
