Jamaica: Transit Hub and Downtown Queens
Jamaica is a neighborhood in southeastern Queens with about 217,000 residents and a long history as a transportation node. The AirTrain JFK terminates at Jamaica Station, where passengers transfer to the Long Island Rail Road and the E, J, and Z subway lines. The station is one of the busiest rail interchanges in the New York region.
The name comes from the Jameco, the Lenape people who lived in the area before Dutch and English colonization. Jamaica served as the county seat of Queens from the late 17th century until 1898, when consolidation with New York City dissolved the separate county courts. The King Manor Museum at 150-03 Jamaica Avenue preserves the home of Rufus King, a signer of the US Constitution and early US Senator from New York.
York College, part of the City University of New York, operates its main campus in Jamaica. Jamaica Avenue serves as the neighborhood's main commercial corridor, with a mix of retail, restaurants, and storefronts that has shifted through successive waves of Caribbean, South Asian, and West African migration in recent decades.
