"Rode my bike to Flushing Meadows today and on the way there I saw the "Crap" is spreading all along 56th Road.
I can't imagine what it could feel like living in between new homes like this and have my view and light almost entirely blocked out! When I got home and looked up the home on Google Maps that section of the block is blacked out on the street browse option.
Wonder why google would do this ? 146-19 56th Rd is surrounded by Queens Crap !" - Anonymous
Google Maps gives homeowners the option to block out their homes for privacy. - QC

Yep....queens crap is all over!
Some people have no sense of proportion.
Hey, what's that tree doing there?
How do builders get away with this ?
It must have been super fun living there while each of those pieces of crap was being built.
A six-unit POC went up on the street behind me, and they put a tall white fence around the back yard. My neighbors and I all have cyclone fencing between our yards, and we can see each other in our yards, but the new tenants in the POC are totally oblivious to our existence. The upshot is they are way louder when they use their yard than we would be because we're aware that other people can see/hear us.
Please. How does one remove one's home from Google maps? Thanks.
It looks like there's a speed hump right in front of this address, so it's possible the images didn't come out clear enough to use.
There is also a known glitch in Google's software that causes gaps.
When Google is preventing something from being displayed on purpose, it's generally just blurred out, so it's doubtful this is some conspiracy going on.
While those houses aren't ugly in and of themselves, the way they're right up against the small house is absurd. How did they get away with that? I don't know any zoning that allows that.
The small house looks like it had attached rowhouses on either side of it. Unfortunately, this is the trend lately.
Also, you can build up to the lot line as per zoning code for most areas.
City Planning and DOB are responsible for this mess and should held accountable! Perhaps they didn't have the vision to predict this could happen but they are doing nothing about it. Most people invest their life savings into their homes and the fact that this could happen to the homeowner in the middle is criminal. Carl Weisbrod and Rick Chandler are failing miserably.
This sham of an administration is destroying our city.
Front yards, back yards, grass, off-street parking, porches, walkways, all so damned over-rated!
Shady contractors. You cant trust a contractor like this. If they would cut corners with their business, how do you think they will handle your project???

your electeds can stop this buy they refuse. quick wasting time battering a faceless agency in city hall when the real culprit has an office in your community. go after them.
If this can happen on 56th Rd what makes you think it can't happen anywhere else ?
This is what the little house's neighbors looked like https://www.redfin.com/NY/Unknown/146-19-56th-Rd-11355/home/20849810 Can you believe that the new buildings on either side did no damage?
How is a person supposed to access the exterior of their house for repairs, when the adjacent building touches it? What does the building code say (or not) about this?

It's an attached house!
It was a nice long block of small one family row houses. Now a huge home replaces the small quaint one and overloads the infrastructure and over populates the neighbourhood.

Have you never seen row houses before?
To the last Anonymous writer RE exterior of houses:
How did the builders work on the large homes' exteriors without standing on the roof of the small original row home? Think about that...
