Whitestone occupies the northern tip of Queens with tree-lined streets of single-family Tudor, Colonial, and Cape Cod homes, many on generous lots with views of the East River and the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge. No subway directly serves the neighborhood; express buses connect to Midtown Manhattan, and the Q44 SBS links to the 7 train at Flushing. Francis Lewis Park and Fort Totten Park, a former U.S. Army installation, provide waterfront green space along the East River and Little Neck Bay.
