The Moore-Jackson Cemetery is a historic cemetery in the Woodside neighborhood of Queens in New York City, active from 1733 to about 1868. It is one of New York City's few remaining 18th-century cemeteries and is a New York City designated landmark. The burial ground occupies a five-sided site on 51st and 54th Streets between 31st and 32nd Avenues. While the cemetery spans about 20,000 square feet (1,900 m2), all of the surviving tombstones are placed along 54th Street. The cemetery was part of the estate of Samuel and Charity Moore, members of one of Queens's oldest families, and contains approximately 48 corpses. The Moores bought the land in 1684 and owned it for over a century. Many of the cemetery's interments are family members of John, Nathaniel, and Mary Moore, three of the Moores' ten children. The tombstone of Augustine Moore (d. 1769) is the oldest that still retains an inscription, as many of the 18th-century tombstones have degraded to the point of illegibility. Though the family estate was sold several times after 1827, interments continued until 1869. John C. Jackson, a member of the Moore family, bought additional land near the cemetery in 1867. The Moore/Jackson family continued to care for the site until about 1910, after which the cemetery fell into severe disrepair. A survey in 1919 found 42 gravestones. After the cemetery underwent a period of disrepair, Works Progress Administration workers relocated the remaining tombstones in 1935 and raised the land. The New York City government seized the cemetery in 1954, and a fence was erected around it two years later. The cemetery deteriorated yet again through the late 20th century, though local resident Cecile Pontecorvo maintained it starting in 1974. The New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the graveyard as a landmark in 1997 following an unsuccessful attempt in the 1970s. The Queens Historical Society bought the Moore-Jackson Cemetery from the Moores' last remaining descendant in 1999 and subsequently restored it. A community garden was established in the cemetery in 2018.

Phipps Garden Apartments is an apartment complex in Sunnyside Gardens, Queens, New York City. It was built in 1931 (1931) by Phipps Houses, a philanthropic organization of the Phipps family to build model tenements for working-class families, along with Henry Wright of Sunnyside Gardens. It is located on 39th Avenue between 50th and 52nd Streets, adjacent to Sunnyside Gardens Park and Sunnyside Yard. Designed by Clarence Stein, The brick buildings feature intricate brick work and curved steel fire escapes. The buildings enclose a landscaped courtyard by landscape architect Marjorie Sewell Cautley. A second, northern group of buildings was built between the first units and the Sunnyside Yard railroad tracks to the north in the late 1930s. Originally, there was a children's playground across the street, also designed by Cautley, but Phipps closed it by the 1990s. In 2007, the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the Phipps Garden Apartments as part of the Sunnyside Gardens Historic District.

Madison Square Garden Bowl was the name of an outdoor arena in the New York City borough of Queens. Built in 1932, the arena hosted circuses and boxing matches. Its seating capacity was 72,000 spectators on wood bleachers. The idea of the stadium came from boxing promotor Tex Rickard, who died before it was completed.The Bowl, located at 48th Street and Northern Boulevard in Long Island City, was the site where James J. Braddock defeated Max Baer for the World Heavyweight title on June 13, 1935, a fight later dramatized in the film Cinderella Man. Braddock's first comeback fight against John "Corn" Griffin was also in the venue. Jack Sharkey and Primo Carnera also captured the heavyweight crown in the 1930s at the Bowl. But because no titleholder ever successfully defended his title there, the stadium was soon dubbed the "Jinx Bowl". The Madison Square Garden Bowl was torn down during World War II to make way for a US Army Mail Depot (and also because arena management deemed it more economical to rent baseball stadiums for fights). Metal from the stadium was melted down to make bullets and other war materials, including those to build the Mail Depot. The depot itself was torn down in the 1960s, and the area is now home to a Major World used-car dealership and strip mall.

Lt. Michael R. Davidson Playground is a 0.23-acre (0.093 ha) playground in the Sunnyside neighborhood of Queens, New York City. It occupies a lot on the south side of 39th Avenue between 50th and 51st Streets, within the Sunnyside Gardens Historic District. Operated by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation (NYC Parks), it is named for Michael R. Davidson (1981–2018), a New York City Fire Department (FDNY) firefighter who grew up in the nearby Phipps Garden Apartments and died fighting a fire in Harlem. The lot was a private playground for children of the Phipps Garden Apartments from the 1930s until the playground closed in the early 1990s. After Phipps sold the site to a developer in 2007, a 2013 proposal to build an eight-unit apartment building there and to reassemble the Aluminaire House (an architecturally significant 1931 metal prototype house) on the lot drew opposition from residents, preservationists, and elected officials and was rejected by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC). The city acquired the site for a public park in 2019, and a neighborhood campaign had it named for Davidson, who had played on the lot as a child. The playground opened on June 18, 2026.
