OUR COMMUNITY

Marathon Jewish Community Center is located on the Little Neck/Douglaston border. The area is made up of primarily single-family homes and garden cooperative apartments.  It is convenient to transportation with express buses and the Long Island Railroad making it a short trip into the City. We are situated in former School District 26, which is known as one of the highest performing in the City. Both the elementary and middle schools are located within walking distance to the temple. Many stores and restaurants are also within walking distance including a kosher butcher and two major supermarkets. We welcome you to take a walk through our community and enjoy all it has to offer.
