M 1s for northeast Queens  Contributor's Pick!       
A westbound Port Washington train makes it stop at Douglaston. Douglaston was one of the better areas in Queens, some of its residents being movie actor Arthur Treacher, known for his roles as a butler; concert pianist Claudio Arrau(and conductor James Conlon grew up here); and tennis star John McEnroe, who also grew up here, learning his trade at the Douglaston Club a mile or so away.
