Doing a web search on one of the companies listed in the photo I came up with: Turbo Auto Sales Inc, 12718 Willets Point Blvd, Flushing, NY 11368 …

And it sure does look like Willets Point (Iron Triangle), but for how long if Bloomberg gets his way? One more piece of Trivia: That is area is called Willets Point, but geographically Willets Point is the area occupied by Ft. Totten in Bay Terrace.
