Rockaway Beach, Queens
Rockaway Beach is a neighborhood on the Rockaway Peninsula in the New York City borough of Queens. It is located on the South Shore of Long Island. The neighborhood is bounded by Arverne to the east and Rockaway Park to the west. It is named for Rockaway Beach, which is the largest urban beach in the United States, stretching for miles along the Rockaway Peninsula facing the Atlantic Ocean.〔"Chill out this summer ... on an urban beach", ''The Vancouver Sun, June 2, 2007. "Rockaway Beach is the largest urban beach in the States."〕 The beach is run and operated by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. Rockaway Beach was once known as the "Irish Riviera" because of the large Irish American population in the area.〔("A Shore Thing: Mini guides to five waterfront neighborhoods worth your salt" ), ''The Village Voice'', May 22, 2006. Accessed June 10, 2007. "There's more to Rockaway Beach than the 1977 Ramones song. A popular beach resort in the 1830s, the "Irish Riviera" was once a destination for sun worshippers from all over the country."〕 According to the 2010 United States Census, the community's total population is more than 13,000 people, making it the third most populated neighborhood on the peninsula.〔("Census Nonsense" ) ''The Wave'', accessed January 27, 2012〕
