Hollis

A neighborhood of established residential blocks.

Hollis includes detached and attached houses, smaller multifamily properties, and apartment buildings in southeastern Queens. Many streets have a distinctly residential scale, with front yards and varied building styles contributing to the streetscape.

Jamaica Avenue and the Long Island Rail Road station provide local reference points. The area’s housing character changes across its blocks, so the layout of a property and its immediate surroundings are useful starting points for exploration.
