The history within reach

  The third leg of horse racing's Triple Crown, run since 1867 and long hosted at Belmont Park.

• UBS Arena, the Islanders' return to Nassau County0.2 mi

  The Islanders left the Nassau Coliseum for Brooklyn in 2015 and spent six seasons shuttling between two buildings that neither city really wanted them in.

• Floral Park, a village named after a seed catalogue1.2 mi

  John Lewis Childs came to the hamlet of East Hinsdale in 1874 to sell seeds and ended up owning several hundred acres of it: glasshouses, seed beds, a rail spur and a mail order business that shipped bulbs worldwide.

• Cambria Heights, named for a Pennsylvania bank1.4 mi

  The name came from the Cambria Title Savings and Trust Company of Cambria County, Pennsylvania, which financed the first houses here in the mid 1920s and sold them to families leaving rented apartments in the older boroughs.

• Hollis, where Run-DMC and LL Cool J grew up2.0 mi

  Hollis is a quiet grid of single family houses that produced an unreasonable share of American rap.
