History: Queens became a borough of New York City in 1898, and would be the fourth-most populous city in the U.S. if it were still on its own. Historically, it has been home to a wide range of immigrant communities, from the Irish and German in Astoria and Middle Village in the 1800s, to Central and South American, South Asian, and Caribbean immigrants today. The 1964-65 World’s Fair in Flushing Meadows was a highlight of Queens in the 20th century, and today the area has grown to become the most ethnically diverse county in the country.
Activities: Flushing Meadows-Corona Park is home to the New York Mets, the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (home of the U.S. Open), the Queens Zoo, Queens Art Museum, and New York Hall of Science. The Museum of the Moving Image is located on an old Paramount movie set in Astoria.
