"Major shopping strip and busy streets"

Dongan Hills is a neighborhood located on Staten Island’s east shore. The area was one of the first communities to exhibit an upsurge in home construction post WWII. At that time, many small single family homes were built in the community, as well as a public housing project known as the General Berry Houses. General Berry Houses is the southernmost public housing project in Staten Island.

Dongan Hills is served by the Dongan Hills station of the Staten Island Rapid Transit, and by several bus routes, mostly along Richmond Road, which is also the major shopping and business street for the community. The FDNY Engine Company 159 is also located in the neighborhood.
