Recently we stumbled upon this photo, which was taken in 1935 and ran in LIFE magazine, where its caption simply reads: "Similar houses of a 'cookie cutter' suburban Queens neighborhood in New York City." It's almost mesmerizing! But what neighborhood in Queens is it? Given the vantage point it's proving more difficult to pinpoint than the last brownstone standing was. Our best guess is South Ozone Park, around Aqueduct—prove us right or wrong?
