Broadway is the longest street in Manhattan, Bedford Avenue is the longest street in Brooklyn, and Hylan Boulevard is the longest street in Staten Island. I'm not so sure whats the longest in Queens or the Bronx though. In the Bronx, I'm gonna guess and say either Tremont Avenue, Boston Road, or Webster Avenue. In Queens, it's either Northern Boulevard, or Francis Lewis Boulevard.

I believe the longest street in the Bronx is Tremont Avenue from Sedgwick Avenue in Morris Heights to Schurz Avenue in Throggs Neck is 7 miles.

In Queens, it's definitely Northern Blvd.

For Queens, I will say Rockaway Boulevard. How does that sound?

I found out the distances by going into "Directions" in Google Maps, typing in the adresses of the two furthest sections of the street located inside Queens, and then changing the route so that it only goes along that specific street

Rockaway Boulevard is about 7.9 miles across
Francis Lewis Blvd is about 10.7 miles
Northern Boulevard is a whopping 11.3 miles!

For the kicks, Metropolitan Avenue is 7.9 miles (but that also includes Brooklyn), Myrtle Avenue is exactly 8.0 miles, Roosevelt Avenue is only 5.8 miles, Crossbay Blvd is 6.7 miles, Flatbush Avenue (including the extension) is 9.8 miles, Atlantic Avenue is 10.0 miles, and Bedford Avenue is 10.1 miles

Also, since this is using Google Maps, there might be a .1 or .2 error in the distances

so the Cross Bronx, which parallels Tremont Ave, should be about 7 miles as well
