86-10 151St Ave

A mid-rise residential cooperative completed in 1966, this six-story building contains studio and one-bedroom apartment configurations aimed at single occupants and couples. The exterior is utilitarian mid‑century masonry with occasional private balconies on upper floors; overall scale and massing fit the low-rise neighborhood fabric of Howard Beach. Interiors commonly feature retrofit updates—open floorplans, eat-in or galley kitchens with granite counters or stainless appliances, hardwood floors beneath carpeting, crown molding and mid-century proportions such as high ceilings and generous closet storage. Ground-floor and accessible units are available, with some apartments offering first-floor bedrooms and full baths. Shared building infrastructure includes an elevator, on-site laundry and a live-in super; heat, gas and hot water are often included in maintenance packages. Common area qualities are straightforward rather than luxurious: maintained corridors, functional entry, and occasional terraces or private outdoor space for select units. Parking is neighborhood street or nearby municipal options rather than a dedicated garage. The building sits within walking distance of shopping, parks, houses of worship and multiple bus lines including express service to Manhattan, supporting a commuter-friendly, suburban-urban lifestyle. Pet and sublet policies vary by coop board approval.
