over 5 years agoDivided alot of my time between VS and Ozone Park, so I got the best of both worlds.
Back in the early 80’s anyway, after 1990 – VS was not an interesting place anymore. Such is the fickleness of youth.
It boasts a wonderful park and pool complex. Interesting “main street” Rockaway Blvd. 2 great diners (in the classical sense) and a bunch of good restaurants.
There’s a mall, 2 movie theatres, plenty of shopping.
Not a destination place by any means, but certainly worth a look-see if your passing through.
