The Gardens, conceived in 1909 and masterfully designed by Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. and Grosvenor Atterbury, is a protected community brimming with extraordinary old-world charm. Arguably America's best planned garden community, the lush grounds, green spaces and quiet streets of Forest Hills Gardens are only minutes away from Manhattan via the L.I.R.R. Station and Express E and F trains. The neighborhood is protected by a no-fly zone ordinance and is perfectly located midway between NYC's two major international airports and only 15 minutes by rail to midtown east and midtown west Manhattan.
