Baisley Park Houses, Public housing development in Queens, United States
Baisley Park Houses is a residential complex with five eight-story apartment buildings in South Jamaica, Queens. The development features multiple residential units arranged across the site with green spaces integrated throughout the property.
The complex was built in 1961 by the New York City Housing Authority as part of the city's housing development program. Its construction reflected efforts to provide affordable residential options during a period of urban expansion.
This residential complex serves as a community hub for families and individuals in South Jamaica who make this place their home. Residents gather in the common green spaces and use the shared grounds as part of their daily neighborhood life.
The complex is located in a residential neighborhood with access via multiple local roads and transit options. Keep in mind this is a residential community where most spaces are for residents, so public access is limited to exterior areas.
The Long Island Rail Road runs along one edge of the property, providing direct rail connections for residents to other areas. This transportation link was a key consideration when the site was originally selected for development.
