Garage Door Repair
Whitestone, NY

Under the Bridge,
Along the River

Whitestone is the northern tip of Queens, with the East River on one side, College Point and the Whitestone Expressway to the west, and Bayside beyond Francis Lewis Boulevard to the east. The Bronx–Whitestone Bridge, finished in 1939 with a 2,300-foot center span, lands here, and the Cross Island Parkway merges into the expressway just before it.

It is a neighborhood of houses: about 7,100 detached homes in 11357, nearly four out of five owner-occupied. In Malba, between the river, 14th Avenue and 138th Street, most homes are large and expensive; Beechhurst runs along the water to the east, near the old Whitestone Landing. 150th Street and Clintonville Street are the local main streets.

Prices

A weekday visit costs nothing extra. On Sunday the visit is $39, and after 7 PM or on a holiday it is $69.

Wide Doors and
Battery Backup

Double doors are common on Whitestone houses; an insulated double steel door starts at $2,950. When storms knock out power, an opener with battery backup — like the LiftMaster 84505R at $550 — still opens the door. See openers.
