FRESH MEADOWS Fresh Meadows, is a neighborhood in Northeastern Queens, New York, which is traditionally bordered to the east by Francis Lewis Boulevard, to the south by Union Turnpike, to the north by Kissena Park, and to the west by Fresh Meadow Lane. Fresh Meadows is also the name of a housing development within the neighborhood, centered along 188th Street. The Fresh Meadows development was constructed in the late 1940's on the site of the Fresh Meadows Country Club and was intended for middle-class residents. It is one of three postwar housing developments constructed by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company at that time, the others being Stuyvesant Town in Manhattan and Parkchester in the Bronx. The Long Island Expressway runs through the neighborhood. Primary streets are 188th Street, Horace Harding Expressway, 73rd Avenue, and Fresh Meadow Lane. The 107th Precinct of the NYPD covers this neighborhood. Kissena Park and Cunningham Park are both located adjacent to Fresh Meadows. Fresh Meadows is also home to St. Francis Preparatory School, the largest Catholic high school in the United States with a incomparable reputation for excellence. Francis Lewis High School, P.S. 26 (Rufus King school), and J.H.S. 216 (George J. Ryan Junior High) are other notable schools within its precincts.

Remodeling and Renovations >Kitchen Catastrophe
You have found an almost perfect house--the right number of bedrooms and baths, a wonderful family room, a great back yard. Your pulse rate increases as you imagine your furniture in the living room, your "excess" neatly stored in the huge attic, and your tulip bulbs blooming in the garden. However, the kitchen looks like it was built long before conveniences like dishwashers or microwaves.
If you have fallen in love with a house with an outdated or unattractive kitchen, you should consider renovating it. Contact a contractor for expert advice during the structural contingency period. Re-doing a kitchen can be a major undertaking, especially if you move walls around. If you put in new appliances, cabinets, and flooring into the existing space, it can be done in a shorter period of time and for a small fraction of the cost. Kitchen improvements are considered excellent investments.
