Rockaway Parkway (original) (raw)

Rockaway Parkway is a major commercial street in the Canarsie & Brownsville neighborhoods of Brooklyn, New York. Canarsie High School, as well as a firehouse and several homes and businesses are on Rockaway Parkway. The Rockaway Parkway station is the southern terminus of the BMT Canarsie Line (L train). The B42 bus runs primarily along Rockaway Parkway, and riders can transfer for free from the Rockaway Parkway subway station. Contrary to its name, Rockaway Parkway does not enter the Rockaways in Queens. The Sutter Avenue-Rutland Road station is located one block away from the intersection of Rockaway Parkway and Rutland Road, over East 98th Street. The IRT New Lots Line also runs parallel to the street from East NY Avenue to Clarkson Avenue.
