Astoria Tutoring FAQ
Astoria is a neighborhood and borough in Queens, New York City, and is located on Long Island. The community was first settled in 1659, and large residences began being constructed in the city in the early 19th century. The neighborhood is named after John Jacob Astor, who was at one time the wealthiest man in America. Astoria was incorporated into Long Island City in 1870, but it was reincorporated into New York City in 1898.
Many of the secondary institution students in Astoria attend Long Island City High School, which is administered by the New York City Public Schools District.
