Bell Blvd, roughly 42nd up to 39th Ave

The Korean corridor

Head north, toward the water. This stretch of Bell is one of the city's best-known Korean restaurant strips — barbecue, fried chicken, cafés, late-night. It is the reason people ride the LIRR out here.

Bell Blvd & 41st Ave

Bayside LIRR station

The bail-out point, a couple of blocks up from the shop. Port Washington Branch, roughly half an hour to Manhattan. If you came only to eat, this is where you turn around.

4
Past the Cross Island Parkway

Little Bay Park & the waterfront

Keep going north and under the parkway to the water. Little Bay Park runs along the shoreline with the Throgs Neck Bridge overhead and the Bronx across the water. The promenade continues toward Fort Totten at the point.

The point

Fort Totten

A 19th-century Army post on the tip of the peninsula, now parkland with water views back toward the bridge. A long finish if you have the legs; otherwise turn back at Little Bay.

Natasha's picks — coming. The specific food and coffee stops on this walk are being chosen by the team at NY Elite rather than by us, because they are the ones who send customers up and down this boulevard every day. Their picks will be named here.

Before you go

  • 21+ with valid ID for the dispensary stop. No exceptions.
  • Do not consume in the parks. Smoking and vaping are not permitted in New York City parks, and that includes Little Bay and Fort Totten.
  • No public consumption where smoking tobacco is banned — same rules apply.
  • Never drive after consuming.
  • This is a self-guided walk on public streets, not a tour and not a licensed event. Green Events NYC is not affiliated with any business named here except as a listing partner.
