STLgasm Oct 30, 2013 5:48 PM

Loved every pic.

Nexis4Jersey Oct 30, 2013 5:54 PM

Its a nice town , I few a threads of it on this site.

Excellent pics. Great Neck is a good example of suburbia done right.

It's also interesting in that it has a large population of Persian Jews, who relocated to the area following the Iranian Revolution. It's the second largest concentration of Persians in the U.S., after Beverly Hills/LA area.

I didn't expect Great Neck to look that urban. Thanks

Great pics, some wonderful residential buildings there. Thanks for the tour boden. :tup:

Great Neck looks like a nice place to live, I'll be it quite expensive there. BTW those major apartment building could easily be placed down in part of Los Angeles and fit right in. I was down in Orange County (Anaheim to be exact) this morning and noticed they have recently built very large apartment complexes all over the place on some of the main blvd. Tustin, and many other OC communities I drove through during the summer seems to be copying this format as well. Anyway thanks for sharing, I could see myself easily living some place like this.

Great Neck looks nice. I like it.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.:tup:

Very nice, this looks like Crawford-ville lol.

AviationGuy Nov 2, 2013 12:51 AM

Nice looking town. There sure are a lot of window A/C units in all those buildings. I guess it's not cost effective up there to upgrade to central A/C.

Thundertubs Nov 2, 2013 2:48 PM

Huh, I had no idea. I assumed it was nice, but mostly just big houses. Cool tour.
