A gem of a building changes hands

From the Queens Courier:

A Woodhaven Village relic is trading hands after its owner went bankrupt.

The historic 124-year-old Wyckoff Building, which is known for its old-style architecture, was sold for $2,801,188, according to city records filed Wednesday.

The Ozone Realty LLC, which bought the property on the corner of 95th Avenue and 93rd Street in 2007, filed for bankruptcy last year after failing to meet the mortgage on the building, which was held by New York Community Bank, according to city records. SDF30 93-02 Ozone Park LLC is the new owner of the building, records show.

The building has six residential apartments and two commercial units throughout four floors and more than 13,000 square feet of space.

Its architecture has characteristics of Queen Anne masonry and Romanesque Revival style semi-arched windows— features found in few properties in the area.

Let's hope they don't knock it down and build another piece of Queens crap.

Queen Anne? Romanesque Revival? What's missing are Chinese lion and dragon heads.

I get sick to my stomach more then Ridgewood driving across Forest Park and down the hill into Woodhaven.

It literally become a 3rd world country like Elmhurst. And now thanks to the casino whores come right up to your car window at stoplights if you look at them. Some even have little kids in tow!!!
