Neighborhood Reviews & Questions

Neighborhood Review
Key Words: Queen Mary, Harbor Waterfront, Skyline Views

Queensway Bay is the harbor-side district across the water from downtown Long Beach, defined by the Queen Mary, the retired ocean liner permanently moored here as a hotel and attraction, and the surrounding waterfront. It is more a destination and harbor zone than a conventional residential neighborhood, taking in the Queen Mary, event lawns, the cruise terminal, and the wide Queensway Bay that gondolas and harbor tours cross to reach downtown's Shoreline Village and the Aquarium. The setting is dramatic, with skyline and water views and a steady flow of visitors and events. There is little if any standard for-sale housing inside the boundary; its value is scenic and recreational, the waterfront stage that hosts the city's biggest gatherings. For residents across the harbor, Queensway Bay is the backdrop, an iconic stretch of waterfront defined by a single, unmistakable ship.
