The New York Irish Center is a community center in Long Island City, where a warm welcome awaits the Irish in the region and, in true Irish spirit, all those who wish to be with us. Long Island City is not, you may be surprised to know, on Long Island per se, but is instead in Queens, in one of the most up-and-coming neighborhoods of the city. It sits right on the East River with a spectacular view of the Manhattan skyline. We are just one stop from Grand Central, a mere five minutes, on the #7 subway line.
