Ridgewood: Queens-Brooklyn Border Neighborhood
Ridgewood occupies the western edge of Queens directly adjoining Bushwick, Brooklyn. The population is around 69,000. The neighborhood was developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with a distinctive building stock of yellow-brick row houses produced by the German-American developer Gustav X. Mathews. More than 5,000 Mathews Model Flats were built between 1900 and 1915.
The neighborhood was historically German, and German American signage and institutions remained well into the mid-20th century. Waves of Italian, Polish, Yugoslav, Romanian, and more recently Hispanic and South Asian migration have reshaped the demographics. A 2010s wave of younger residents priced out of neighboring Bushwick has driven further change along Myrtle Avenue.
Myrtle-Wyckoff Avenues is a major transfer point between the L and M trains. The Ridgewood Theater on Myrtle Avenue, opened in 1916 as a vaudeville and silent film house, operated until 2008 and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
