Sunnyside is a neighborhood in the western portion of the New York City borough of Queens. It is bounded by Hunters Point and Long Island City to the west, Astoria to the north, Woodside to the east, and Maspeth and Newtown Creek to the south. The Sunnyside Yard rail complex separates the neighborhood from Astoria along its northern boundary, and the Brooklyn–Queens Expressway forms part of its southern edge. The area developed as a residential bedroom community in the years after the Queensboro Bridge opened in 1909 and the Flushing Line subway reached Queens in 1917. Most of the neighborhood was built up between the early 1920s and the late 1930s. North of Queens Boulevard, the planned community of Sunnyside Gardens was constructed between 1924 and 1928 as one of the first applications of the garden-city model in the United States; it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984 and designated a New York City historic district in 2007. Sunnyside is served by the 7 train subway and is along the route of the annual St. Pat's for All parade. Sunnyside is located in Queens Community District 2, and its ZIP codes are 11101, 11104, and 11377. It is patrolled by the New York City Police Department's 108th Precinct. Politically, Sunnyside is represented by the New York City Council's 26th District.
