The Zoning Map Zoning seeks to regulate the way land is used, building size, and population density. Good zoning regulations respond to changing demographic and economic conditions and are a tool for carrying out planning policy. New York City enacted the nation's first comprehensive zoning resolution in 1916. Today's official zoning maps are paper one's maintained by the City Planning Department. But unofficial digital maps for Queens Community District 3 are available from City Planning's server. Click an area of interest on the below map and a zoning map for that section of the district will be sent. NOTE: zoning maps don't match district boundaries and you'll need to search out the area(s) of interest in the zoning map sent. More information about zoning, including detailed explanations of the codes, is available at the City Planning Department's website. A simpler explanation is provided by a publication from the Municipal Art Society. REMEMBER: The city's up-to-date zoning maps are maintained by the City Planning Department in paper format. These digital maps are provided for general planning purposes only.
