TOP DOG

Spring is finally here, and western Queens residents are
itching to get outside and stretch their legs — and their
dogs are no different! We’ve rounded up some local spots
that cater to your furry friend (page 20). Want to know
which dog breed is the most popular in Astoria? Turn
to page 42 to find out and take a look at your neighbors’
pups.
If you’ve ever bookmarked a drool-worthy food photo
on Instagram only to forget about it later, we’ve got an
app for you. Popcity, founded by an Astorian, will make
sure you never miss out on your foodie goals (page 32).
Plus, while you’re hungry, grab a cookie at Coffeed this
April. It’s Autism Awareness Month, so Julia Maidman,
a baker with autism, is selling sweet treats to benefit
autism programs (page 41).
