~ College Point, New York ~

College Point, New York is located in Queens, one of the five boroughs that comprise New York City. It is a quiet multicultural neighborhood that seems to be more suburban than urban. We are minutes away from world famous attractions such as the Empire State Building, Times Square, Central Park, the Bronx Zoo, Yankee and Shea Stadiums.

Our class wrote an acrostic poem about College Point:

College Point is a very nice neighborhood
Oh it is so beautiful
Little league games are played here
Lots of stores around
Every day the stores are open
Great things happen in this town
Eat in the pizza shops

Plenty of parks
Our town is great
Ice cream stores are here
Near Times Square
Trains and buses get us around

New York City rules
East coast
Whitestone Bridge

Yankees are the world champions
Only the best of everything
Really the neighborhood that I like
Kids are nice here

Cold weather in the winter
Icy streets in the winter
The circus is here
Yankee Stadium is near by
