"This beautiful tract [Kew Gardens], at the geographical center of the city, stretches across the highest levels of the borough of Queens and is now in the course of development and sale. It includes the entire surroundings of Kew station (16 minutes from the Pennsylvania terminal), and has a frontage of one mile on Forest Park, from Myrtle Avenue to Union Turnpike."
