Tired of riding elevators and escalators? "The World's Longest Department Store," Steinway Street is in fact a boulevard of bright stores and boutiques. As a Steinway Street shopper, you are just steps away from a wide selection of merchandise at attractive prices.

Between 28th Avenue and 35th Avenue alone, numerous retailers specialize in electronics, footwear, furniture, and apparel (men's, women's, and children's). Other popular categories are cards and party items, home decorating, jewelry, and sporting goods.

The Steinway Street stop shared by the R and G subway lines provides easy access to and from "The World's Longest Department Store." Once here, you can hop on the Q101 bus to go from one end to the other. Parking is available at "Muni-Meter" lots and on adjacent streets.

Plenty of food outlets, ATMs, and public telephones make shopping in Astoria convenient and enjoyable. In the mood for a movie? Try the UA Astoria multiplex on the corner of 30th Avenue or, on weekend afternoons, the American Museum of the Moving Image

Every weekend from Memorial Day to Labor Day, the Astoria Information Carts are stationed at key business-district intersections including: Broadway/Steinway Street, 30th Avenue/33rd Street, Broadway/33rd Street, and 30th Avenue/Steinway Street.
