The property also includes an indoor parking garage that offers eight indoor parking spaces currently rented to tenants. There is a brand new laundry room containing six coin-operated washers and six dryers that are owner-operated. Since Hurricane Sandy in October 2012, current ownership has upgraded many of the building's core systems and renovated a significant number of the apartments. The property has been well maintained and it shows when you walk through the doors. The property is conveniently located three short blocks from the main retail thoroughfare — a busy two-way street — on Beach 116th Street with additional neighborhood retail on Beach 129th Street as well. By car, 131 Beach 119th Street is accessible by the Marine Parkway and Cross Bay Bridges. The Belt Parkway and Van Wyck Expressway provides vehicular transportation to anywhere in the metro area.
