Woodside

The 7 train runs along and over Roosevelt Avenue in north-central Queens. Small shops line the street from Corona to Sunnyside (at which point the Avenue disappears, to reappear on the other side of Queens Boulevard as Greenpoint Avenue, bound for Brooklyn).

 At 53rd Street, where there is more light under the street as Roosevelt is wider than the elevated tracks (notice the sunshine on the sidewalk), there's a Peruvian-Mexican grocery.

Continuing east (I was riding the Q32 bus), there's Peking BBQ, a Chinese-Peruvian restaurant; next to it is Rico Pan, a bakery & cafeteria (probably Colombian), and (just visible) The beerkeeper

On east,not very clear because of the raindrops on the bus window, Tibet Kitchen (and Friends Corner Cafe).

I got off the bus at 82nd Street, bought a couple of empanadas and a bottle of cold water, and found a place to sit for a few minutes. Done, I walked up to the 82nd Street station, to catch a 7 train back to Flushing.

When I watch las noticias locales, I often see commercials for Ginarte (lawyers).

 And this is an urban scape, from the platform of the train station:

Back on Main Street I went to Xi'an Famous foods, got a couple of snacks (great food, from easter China; great value), and ambled back home. Poor GW, not even a plaque. Steinbeck has a plaque, Sherman a gilded statue and George Washington? zilch. Well, a bridge, yeah, but where he actually lived? Nuthin'
