Fun Facts and History of Rego Park

Originally inhabited by the Lenape people, Rego Park was colonized by the Dutch and British around 1653. The settlement became known as Whitepot, and was incorporated into the Township of Newtown. The area was largely used for farmland, especially among British and Chinese immigrants, until the early 1900’s.

Whitepot eventually became known as Rego Park, “Rego” being an abbreviation for “Real Good” as in the Real Good Construction Company that developed the area to be more residential. Department stores were later added, making Rego Park a popular place.

The nieghborhood has often been a haven for immigrant populations, especially during WWII when many Jewish families escaping the Holocaust needed places to live. This diversity still lives on today, and the neighborhood’s shopping and culinary institutions receive the highest of praise.

Rego Park Buildings

Rego Park has a decent amount of luxury high and mid rise buildings. However, most of the area’s structures are flatter, never reaching higher than six stories or so. There are several new developments being built, so the ratio of high to low rise buildings should even out in the near future.
