Jackson Heights earned high kudos in this weekend's New York Times. The real estate column "the Hunt" chronicled a couple discovering the great neighborhood, searching for an apartment, and buying a co-op in Dunolly Gardens.

Jackson Heights, especially the historic district, has some of the best buildings in Queens, most pre-war and many with private gardens. It's also close to midtown by subway and has great restaurants.

Real estate prices have gone high as the neighborhood becomes more well-known. The areas north and east of the historic district are significantly cheaper, though the building are mostly post-war and lack private gardens.
