Circa 1870, the influential Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) came up with the Greenlawn label for the local area station to promote and stimulate seaside travel to the nearby beach resort town of Centerport. The lingering question remains: why tag a landlocked hamlet like Greenlawn, with a turf-like namesake, if it's supposed to support a conflicting, incorrect beach-like lifestyle image? The unanswered mystery regarding this peculiarity still lingers on.
According to the United States Census Bureau's 2010 report, the unincorporated hamlet of Greenlawn (so classified as a result of its official designation as a "census-designated place") had 13,742 residents packed into a compact 3.7-square miles of Suffolk County's finest real estate. In addition to an historical association with producing pickles from locally grown cucumbers, Greenlawn's Fire Department is reputed to be the host of New York State's biggest and oldest fair every year for the Labor Day weekend.

Balconies are a coveted amenity for many renters looking for high-rise views and opportunities for fresh air. However, you should keep in mind that balconies often come with restrictions.
Before signing a lease, ask about how many people can be on the balcony at once. Also, ask about whether you’re allowed to store a bike or other items.
You’ll also want to know about any maintenance schedules. Using your balcony as storage could result in fines and intervention from your property management.
Keep in mind that not all balconies are created equally. You may discover the views of the parking area are less than optimal or reduce your overall privacy.
Balconies can also get messy with debris, foliage, dirt, and pollen depending on your location. Renters are typically responsible for any clean-up and basic balcony upkeep.
Regardless of the issues to keep in mind, balconies are usually a big win for Greenlawn renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
