Serene and Historic residence with beautiful and verdant grounds. The Weeping Beech Tree (planted in 1847) stands out as much as the residence. Visit this significant location when in need of solitude or when in company of your significant other.
Very enjoyable half hour tour given by the Kingsland Homestead tour guide Jaren. Very knowledgeable about the history and couldn't be any nicer. The Weeping Beech trees are just amazing to gaze upon.
Highly recommend visiting this place. Great old Quaker home!
I came here because I saw this place (Queens Historical Society) in the list of possibilities for the recent Culture Pass. I visited it during one of my recent trips to Flushing.
I don't find it too interesting. It shows the history of the King's family and relatives and some horse racing in Queens ... But I don't feel that it really gives you a sense of Queens' history.
The house is not really that great inside or outside, in my very subjective opinion. This place seems to be opened only during Tue., Sat. and Sun. and only during 2:30 -4:30 pm.
I visited both floors in this house and it's said that you may arrange a time to do research but I wonder how many people really do that every year ?! But of course, it's probably all just due to my ignorance :-(
