TOP BROKERS SPOT THE HOT NEW NEIGHBORHOODS.

"There's vibrant new life among the ruins in WoFa, the trendy South Flushing area cobbled into being on the site of the 1964-65 New York World's Fair by refugees priced out of Dumbo. The formerly forlorn gaggle of abandoned structures and cracked asphalt is a humming habitat for young artists, complete with all the amenities that define the bohemian life style: no Starbucks, no running water, no street cleaning, and no convenient subway stops."

"Until last week, Whog, a stretch of shoreline between the Whitestone and Throgs Neck bridges, was little more than scrub grass and mud lapped by flotsam-littered tides. Now it has leaped to life as a pioneering outpost for New York's surprisingly populous and literally swinging bungee-jumping set, drawn by the proximity of two towering bridges and plentiful ambulance routes. There's nothing like a Sunday saunter along Whog's waterside, where young daredevils gather to gaze skyward, amid hoarse choruses of 'Jump!' or softly murmured 'Uh-oh!'s."
