About this Site
This semester, Macaulay Honors students in Professor Vellon's "Peopling of New York" course studied Corona, Queens, one of the world's most diverse neighborhoods.
The students read ethnographic and historical works about the area, took a walking tour and returned to the neighborhood to take pictures, speak to local residents and learn more about the neighborhoods history, institutions, and everyday life.
This website is the final product of this research. It is meant to share some of Corona's history, through its changing food traditions, changing demographics, and changing religious, cultural and recreational institutions and to serve as a guide to contemporary Corona, mapping many of the community resources.
Have a look around!
