R.R. Stapleton's Cedarhurst Hotel, ca. 1910-1920 This hotel was previously the home of George B. Roe. Roe was the owner of a lumber and coal yard in Flushing under the name George B. Roe and Company. His company was one of the oldest in the area, as reported in the 1882 History of Queens County: 'It owns extensive properties, both on the waterline and in town." The property was converted into a hotel in the 1890s.

Flushing Bridge, c. 1905. The Flushing Bridge, also known as the Northern Boulevard Crossing, is located at the site of the oldest crossing of the Flushing River which was built between 1800 and 1801. Multiple variations of this crossing were built between the first structure and the current bridge, which opened in 1980. Pictured here is a swing-bridge variation that was free to cross (other iterations required a toll) unless you exceeded the speed limit of five miles per hour.
