116th Street
"Major thoroughfares, railroad tracks, and preserved green space carve Kew Gardens into a series of relatively distinct districts. Between Lefferts Boulevard, the railroad tracks, Union Turnpike, Forest Park, and Metropolitan Avenue, streets with names like Abingdon, Audley, Beverly and Onslow climb in a sort of curving grid up to the heights of Forest Park at the top of the terminal moraine. The winding, tree-lined streets, seem to intersect at less-than-regular angles and then curve out of view, luring the traveler up the hill to see what lies beyond."
