Like so many upscale Big Apple suburbs, this neat little burg's best kept secret is that its most heavily depended upon asset is actually located where it's not supposed to be.
When it comes to trivia facts about the village of Lawrence, Nassau County, NY (not to be confused with the upstate NY town of Lawrence), few can top this gem. The original developers of Lawrence's transportation treasure, the Long Island Rail Road station in the heart of town, bit off more than they could chew when they jumped the gun and mistakenly notified the public of its incorrect address. The depot's officially listed location is at the corner of Lawrence and Bayview Avenues, two blocks west of Central Avenue when it's actually two blocks to the north of Central, and Bayview is on the other side of the railroad tracks' right-of-way. Since all of the station's published location reference resources were so heavily committed, nobody ever bothered to get the facts straightened out, presumably for cost considerations. If you move to Lawrence, make sure, as an unfamiliar stranger, you don't get caught up in the confusion and wait for your train ride at a phantom location. See more
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 Lawrence renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
