Queensbridge (w skrócie QB) – największy komunalny projekt mieszkalny Stanów Zjednoczonych, położony w Queens, na Long Island w Nowym Jorku. Kompleks został otwarty w 1939 roku. Obok kompleksu znajduje się charakterystyczny Most Queensboro. Na kompleks składa się 3142 jednostek mieszkalnych.
W latach 50. podjęto projekt przesiedlenia większości białych mieszkańców dzielnicy o zarobkach powyżej 3000 dolarów rocznie do innych rejonów miasta, w efekcie tworząc enklawę ubogich Afroamerykanów oraz latynosów. Na skutek tych działań Queensbridge jest dziś jedną z najniebezpieczniejszych okolic Nowego Jorku.
Z Queensbridge wywodzi się kilku uznanych amerykańskich raperów, m.in. Nas, Nature, Havoc, Prodigy, Littles, MC Shan, Big Noyd czy Tragedy Khadafi.

The flag of Navassa Island is simply the United States flag. It does not have a "local" flag or "unofficial" flag; it is an uninhabited island. The version with a profile view was based on Flags of the World and as a fictional design has no status warranting a place on any Wiki. It was made up by a random person with no connection to the island, it has never flown on the island, and it has never received any sort of recognition or validation by any authority. The person quoted on that page has no authority to bestow a flag, "unofficial" or otherwise, on the island.

Seal of New York City, as portrayed by Paul Manship’s standardized version.
The seal’s 1.1:1 height-to-width ratio is intentional and representative Manship’s original model. The one departure in this rendering from the original is the use of beavers based on the 1623 seal of the Province of New Netherland in order to portray them in greater detail. Since Manship’s original was a sculpture rather than a print, there are no official standards for the seal colors. The version shown here represents the contributor's attempt to use as many historically accurate hues as possible. Including accounts of traditional Lenape dress, and 15th/16th century Dutch uniforms. The red, white, and blue of the wreath are taken from the battle flag of the Fifth New York Regiment of the Civil War, which depicts the arms of the City.
