Everyone loves a good garage sale.
At least, that's what the Douglaston Manor Environmental Association hopes will be the case later this morning as this year's kicks off in front of homes around the neighborhood.
Shoppers can find "treasure maps" at Station Realty or the Douglaston Market. All proceeds for this second annual event will go toward beautifying the landscape of Douglaston Manor.
Happy hunting, folks!
