The Golf City Slide was located at 140-15 20 ave near the Whitestone Exwy in Flushing/Whitestone/College Point area, it would be approximately where the Mall is on what is now a major thoroughfare on
...
20ave about where the McDonalds is presently and is fondly remembered by many locals now spread far and wide over the years. The location always seems to get confused by people with another local Icon of the Area "Adventures Inn" amusement park which also met its demise and was similarly located off the Whitestone Exwy but was actually on Linden Place not 20ave. The clip from the movie "Shafts Big Score" shot in 1972 in which a good stretch of 20ave was used in the movie shows the length of 20 ave at that time running from Parsons Blvd at the mobil station which is still there to About 132 St. During the car chase down the formerly 2 lane swampy road you can see the parking lot and partial view of Golf City and from the helicopter chase views if you pay close attention you'll be able to see a short glimpse of the old Aero Slide.
