Where to buy plexiglass for storm door?

Does anyone know where is a good place in Brooklyn or Queens to buy a few square feet plexiglass?

The plexiglass on the bottom-half of my storm door cracked so I will need to replace it before the cold of winter sets in.

There are probably places in Brooklyn and Queens, but Canal St. in Manhattan has been plastics central for many, many years:
T & T Plastic Land Inc., 315 Church Street - (212) 925-6376

There is a place in Brooklyn, I forget the name. It's on 3rd Ave near Carroll Street, just before Carroll when traveling Manhattan-bound.

I bough several pieces of plexiglass last month and found the most reasonable priced place on Fort Hamilton Pkwy between 39th and 40th Streets. Parking is tough there. A shop on 4th Ave near 60th Street wanted 3 times as much for the same plexiglass. Expect to pay around $20 at the Ft. Hamilton shop.
