Grenfell Street West of Onslow Place

"As factories, trade, congestion and their attendant drawbacks take gradual possession of the former residential sections of Manhattan, it may be safely predicted (and it is indeed already demonstrated) that [the Kew Gardens, Forest Hills] zone of Queens will become the most eagerly sought and most valuable residential property in the City."

From c. 1930 manuscript found in the files of the late Alrick H. Man.
