Fun Facts and History of Flushing

Founded in 1645, Flushing was originally named Vlissingen by Dutch settlers of New Amsterdam. However, once the English took over in 1664, Queens County was created and the town was named Flushing in 1683. Flushing was one of the five original towns in Queens, and several buildings from this era still stand today.

During the 1700’s and 1800’s, Flushing’s population grew by quite a lot. It incorporated both the towns of College Point and Whitestone before being incorporated into Queens and Greater New York City in 1898, though the people of Flushing were against this.

During the early 1900’s, Flushing was a major player in the film industry before Hollywood really took off. Because of this, the area became extremely popular with wealthy socialites. However, once Hollywood did take off, people went out west, leaving a lot of affordable housing for the working class and immigrant communities. Today Flushing is a bustling, diverse neighborhood and still a major player in Queens.

Flushing Buildings

Flushing is slowly seeing more luxury high rises being constructed. However, most of the neighborhood remains rather flat. Row houses and mid rise apartment complexes dominate the area, as do the three to six story store fronts on busier streets.
