Queens (New York city) situated across the East River from midtown Manhattan, Queen’s is becoming a top cultural destination. P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center, housed in a former elementary school is a hip destination, especially in the summer when DJs spin on the roof. It was recently remodeled by famed architect Frederick Fisher, and includes sculpture and a theater. Socrates Sculpture Park, an open-air park with free exhibits of large sculpture, has a great view of Manhattan. The Noguchi Museum displays many sculptures and works of design created by the famed Japanese-American artist Isamu Noguchi.
Queens was the home of Shea Stadium, the former home of New York Mets of Major League Baseball and the New York Jets of the National Football League, as well as the temporary home of the New York Yankees and the New York Football Giants. Citi Field, the Mets' current home, is located adjacent to where Shea once stood. The US Open tennis tournament is played at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, located just south of Citi Field in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. The US Open was formerly played at the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills. Queens is also the home of Aqueduct Racetrack, located in Ozone Park. Just over the Queens line (in Nassau County) is Belmont Park Race Track, the home of the Belmont Stakes. In the past, Extreme Championship Wrestling has been held at an Elks lodge in Elmhurst.
Queens is home to restaurants from all cultures. A wide variety of foods from all different cultures, particularly Chinese, Colombian, Ecuadorian, Filipino, Indian, Haitian, Korean, Mexican restaurants, along Roosevelt Avenue; Dominican food in Corona and African-American cuisine in Jamaica. Other cultures, such as Greek, Arab, Latin American, and Southeast Asian, have very prominent standings in Astoria. There are several Bukharian restaurants that serve Central Asian food all around Forest Hills and Rego Park.
