Lawrence, NY

158 Apartments for Rent with Garages

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

Lawrence apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.

Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.

It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.

Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
