It keeps home/apartment prices down and helps the neighborhood retain its friendly, easy-going spirit. This laid-back feeling, which is felt throughout the neighborhood, is what keeps many of us here. Each section of Sunnyside needs to be explored and has its own special charms. On the southern side of Queens Blvd, there is Spanish theater, Side Tracks, Pio Pio and a fantastic range of reasonably-priced cuisine. Meanwhile, on the northern side, nothing can beat the character and price of “Center Cinemas” on Queens Blvd…to the array of pubs and restaurants that are mushrooming on Skillman Ave. - See more at: http://sunnysidepost.com/about/#sthash.3PToO9xi.dpuf
