The Matinecock tribe, a division of the Algonquian nation lived in this area of Queens, New York City. Somehow they borrowed the Chippewa tribes word Kissena which means "it is cold" or "cool water" yet for the Matinecock tribe Kissena translated to "The place where the cool wind blows." and that's exactly why I went to Kissena park on this unseasonably hot day. This set shows a subset of what I saw.
