Queens Giant - Location

Location

The Queens Giant is situated north of the Long Island Expressway, west of the Cross-Island Parkway, hidden within a grove. The tree is just visible to westbound vehicles on the Expressway, but without going to the tree itself, the chances of knowing where to look are slight. The tree is near the Douglaston Plaza Mall, and is accessible by foot from Alley Pond Park. There are no signs to it, perhaps because many people want to keep it a secret and protect it from harm. One way to see it is with an Urban Park Ranger tour.
