The average Queens person would not even notice this at all. Unbelievable that no one proof reads items like this in this day and age, but not surprising. The bar is set so damn low anymore with everything from film and music to journalism and politics.
And we are sure that it got a 5 star rating like all those dirty taco food trucks got from that landlord loving-political pandering "We Heart Astoria" clique, too.
I notice typo's on signs all the time. The best is the NYU dorm at 110 E 14th st. It has professionally made signs on the glass doors asking people not to bang carts into the doors, and the last line is "Thank you for your co-operation"
THere are a lot of signs with misspelling around. Don't the effing vendors use spell check and have the decency to tell their customers? Some customers are immigrants and make honest mistakes, other folks makes mistakes in a hurry.

Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap
"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt

For kinds? Human, animal or aquatic? This diversity marketing and pandering has gone too far.
America is filled with lazy dummies!

Welcome to America. Now learn to speak (write and read) English!!!
Wo, oh, what I want to know, is are you kind?
Who cares when you can waste your life focused on important stuff like the fine points of cheese, noodles, and beer.
Braces "For All Kinds" ---looks correct to me for Queens
They just need a ladder and stitch in a "&" or "of" font,
I cringe every time I pass the sign!
