I actually like this free local queens newspaper as it's in most banks , supermarkets , post office…read moreand hand full of other shops in Astoria . I like it mostly for the police blotter type stories which I find interesting and amusing unless it's a serious crime like assault and other felonies which I don't find interesting or amusing but makes me angry as hell. Good local paper to see what's going on in queens and upcoming events that's not usually advertised in local papers or news media outlets. 4.5 stars for good reading material while having breakfast in Astoria on Sundays .

For Queens, by Queensters, to Queensters!…read more The Queens Gazette is a weekly local community newspaper published specifically geared to the borough of Queens. I rate it four stars as local community newspapers as Queens Gazette is hard to local in small communities as Hollis Hills, Richmond Hill, or Ozone Park but residents need to flock to larger populated communities within Queens as Flushing, Forest Hills to obtain a copy of the Gazette. The Queens Gazette often announces events as the Saint Patrick's Day parade in Flushing and in The Rockaways. Queens, home to the 1964 and 1965 New York World's Fair, two airports, and Aqueduct Racetrack!

what memories of the once a week pennysaver flyer mag being dropped by the dozens in buildings…read morelobby. the pennysaver mag was where i could see all the use cars , boats , appliances , bikes , etc , for sale by owner advertised on basically every page , along with the local businesses including the fish market , bakery, butcher shop and even the funeral palor(creepy). it was a free one a week rag but everyone read it just like the daily newspaper. i never purchased a car or boat , or antyhing due to the pennysaver but i did enjoy highlighting which use car i was going to buy for 1500 bucks while only have 5 bucks in my pocket if i was lucky enough. the pennysavers fit in perfectly for that time a bunch of years ago and if i happen to come across one time to time then its just fine and dandy with me.

70th Street York Newsstand is in a location I'm always walking around. Did you know that you can…read moreget a license to operate a newsstand in NYC? The owner can customize the look. This stand has the little awning to protect you from the rain. In addition to that it's fast friendly service when it's open! I've been walking by at times and it's shuttered up. It gets busy because there's lots of medical facilities nearby. If you need to visit someone in the hospital it's a good place to pick up gum or candy. I was tempted to get a lottery ticket. I decided I'm not feeling lucky!

As with all of these they are mini convenience stands- snacks, drinks, newspapers, etc. Hope I picked the big winners!

I have the 2002 Locations Magazine which were very resourceful in my search for a venue of my needs…read morein planning my special day in a past life as well as events in my professional aspect. The venue's profile details information on space in number of people it can hold, approx. cost per person, web site, etc. I rate Locations Magazine four stars as the magazine is only available at speciality newstands or magazine stores as Hudson News or Universal News unlike your local Mom and Pop newstand. In addition, the information supplied by Locations Magazine is not fully detailed with concrete information as deposit information, format of payment, transportation access or availability of alcohol, etc.
