Woodside is one of the historic residential communities of Queens. It's central location, just a 15-minute drive from mid-town Manhattan, has meant that the neighborhood has long been an ideal place for family homes and businesses. At one time it was the site of sprawling country estates and fruit orchards. Today it's home to many quiet, tree-lined residential avenues, and a vibrant and diverse independent business community. Woodside is known around New York City for its spectacular St. Patrick's Day Parade, and also as the home of the city's only Little Manilla, a unique business community offering an incredible range of Filipino products and services. The neighborhood is also home to Windmuller Park and its famous Doughboy statue, a loving memorial to the soldiers of World War One.
