It is really such a miracle; I never know that the area I live actually have a name until I did this assignment, and looked at this website above. Before when people ask me where I live, it is always very difficult for me to explain to them. Maybe Flushing just has too many streets and Avenues. When I told people that I live on 147th Street and Beech Avenue that close to Sanford Avenue, it seemed always so hard for them to recognize this place. Anyway, finally I can tell them loudly that I live in Waldheim, Flushing. Although people may still never heard about this place. Still, it has an official name now for them to remember. Well I don't know why don't people use this name so often anymore lately, but the name actually exists according to my research.
" Today, Waldheim stretches between Franklin Avenue on the north, 45th Avenue on the south, Bowne Street on the west and Parsons Boulevard on the east." This webpage gives a detail information about the neighborhood that I live.

From this website I found may useful link about Flushing, such as: Queens: history, economics demographics, photos, famous spots, restaurant, etc. Almost anything about Flushing you can find it here. Even information about job finding and housings, it is really a great website to explore and learning.
"Flushing is the biggest urban center in Queens, and home of the largest Chinatown in New York City. Learn about its real estate, history, and restaurants through these articles and photographs" Chinatown is one of the most important identity about Flushing. It is hard to find anything about Flushing with out typing this word.
