<blockquote>Walker’s paradise! So easy to find good places to eat: lots of sushi, Chinese food, diners, etc. Great produce at the local market. Needs a new Supermarket but hopefully, Stop and Shop will open up in Great Neck. Very convenient to work out at Planet Fitness. LIRR is easy to walk to and the short ride into Manhattan is great for commuters.</blockquote>
