Being a father, I always look for a neighborhood that has a lot to offer for the kids. The Ridgewood/Glendale area of Queens has a lot to offer my huge family. I'm a father of 7 and already a grandfather of 3, and I can honestly say that I don't have to leave the Ridgewood/Glendale area to keep the kids entertained. From community based baseball, basketball and soccer leagues, to a great mix of Martial Arts schools and centers, the many great local playgrounds, and of course the Ridgewood YMCA, my children's exercise needs are easily met right here in the neighborhood we call home. Birthday party's are never difficult to plan out, even when we are hit with rain or snow because we have two of my favorite places to visit, the indoor playground at Kids Fun House on Fresh Pond Road and kiddie friendly Funtopia on Metropolitan Ave. If it is culture that the parents want to share with their children, Ridgewood is home to the oldest stone house in all of New York City, the Vander Ende-Onderdonk House located at the corner of Onderdonk Ave and Flushing Ave. They open to the public on Saturday afternoons and host many family oriented events throughout the year. Want to fill up your days with fun for all ages? Explore the plethora of programs the Ridgewood Public Library has to offer.
For the less parent-like, more dating type of shopper, we have so many restaurants, bars and cafes along Myrtle Avenue that you may have a hard time picking out your favorite. I will mention three places that are especially fun for me. I am a big eater, and I love the selection at the new Ridgewood Ale House that opened up on Myrtle Avenue between Weirfield and Centre Streets. If you want some good old Queens style diner food, go over to Tasty's or New York Grill. Don't go there on a Sunday. You will NOT find an open seat. We have plenty of ethnic eateries as well, like Mexican at Fajita Sunrise on Myrtle Ave, Sushi at Sakura IV on Myrtle Ave, to Antica Trattoria on Fresh Pond Road, German at the historic Zums Stammtisch on Myrtle Ave, the Nepalese Indian Restaurant on Seneca Ave, Latin-American food at Chiflez, Caribe Star or La Flor Del Paraiso, plenty of Pizzerias and Chinese takeouts to choose from, and more delis with their own spin on the good old sandwich than you can imagine (I recommend Stop One on 66th and Myrtle Ave). We are a neighborhood full of watering holes and sports bars, for the sports fanatics who need to have a drink and eat some good food at the end of the work day or week, stop by any of the many sports bars in the area. My favorite because of the burgers and the hot wings has to be The Avenue on Myrtle Avenue. If you are feeling adventurous, go for the hot wings or their special burger with ghost sauce.
After enjoying all the great restaurants in the area, one might find it necessary to work out some of the guilt at a local gym. We have them all, from New York Sports Club at Atlas, to Planet Fitness by the Myrtle-Wyckoff train station, to Retro Fitness on Otto Road, to Lucille Roberts for the ladies on Myrtle Ave, to the no frills for the gym rat Richie's Gym on Myrtle Ave (my favorite). If you are not the gym type, go for a run around the Ridgewood Reservoir at Highland Park.
For those that love to shop, if you cannot find what you are looking for in the endless rows of small mom and pop shops along Myrtle Ave or Fresh Pond Road (we are a small business type of neighborhood), then you can always head over to the Shops At Atlas Park. Yes, we have our own shopping mall.
Add the diverse houses of worship for people of all faiths, the many forms of entertainment, and the ease of travel by car and by public transportation, and you have all the elements that make a neighborhood great for everyone.
On the real estate side, we are still much more affordable than many other Queens and Brooklyn neighborhoods, are just minutes from Manhattan by train or car, and we offer everything from coops and condos, to single family, multi family and work-live spaces. We have town homes, ranches, new construction and pre-war buildings. The Ridgewood/Glendale area truly has it all.
