It’s where 58th Ave meets 58th Pl. If you hit 58th Rd, turn right on 58th St because you’ve gone too far.
oh, between 57th and 58th? thank you!!

I’m at the corner of 1st and 1st… How can the same street intersect with itself? It must be at the nexus of the universe.

Ugly industrial part of the city. Giant cemetery nearby.

Back in the day, Queens was mostly farmland. Right after WW2 the New York City GIs wanted houses, and didn’t want to be too far from their old neighborhoods. Farms got sold but the original streets had already been mapped. That’s where this monstrosity was born.

I looked up this monstrosity on a map and it seems it alternates Avenue, Road, and Drive north to south and Street and Place west to east
