Birchwood Court, also known as Garden Plaza is a 6 building, 444 family Cooperative, located in Mineola, NY. The 6 five story buildings are nestled into a garden like atmosphere, amongst trees, sitting areas, walking paths, and a children’s playground. The landscaping is maintained by a professional landscaper, year round, to ensure that the lawns and shrubs are manicured and cared for, as needed, and so that we can live up to our Garden Plaza reputation. The complex is situated on Roslyn Road, and borders Old Country Road to the immediate South. Protected by gates, and a 24 hour security guard, using state of the art technologies and video equipment, Birchwood is in the heart of Nassau County and conveniently located. Blocks from Roosevelt Field, and many fine stores and restaurants, Birchwood is also an easy commute to Manhattan via the Long Island Railroad, a 2 block walk to the Mineola Station. For drivers, Birchwood is a pleasure with close proximity to major Nassau County Highways, including the Meadowbrook Parkway, Long Island Expressway, and the Northern State Parkway. Nassau County Offices, Winthrop Hospital, and the Courts are all within easy walking distance, from Birchwood, yet, with all of these surroundings, we remain private and well hidden from the general public. Each building is fitted with an intercom buzzer, cameras in the lobby, a state of the art laundry facility, tenant’s storage areas, and service entrances. A fully trained Maintenance staff and porter crews are responsible for the upkeep of the grounds, public areas, apartment repairs and physical plant. They are supervised by an on site Manager, who reports to the Board of Directors, an elected group of 7 Shareholders who are charged with setting policies and the decisions that would be associated with the operation of a large Cooperative residence, both from the standpoint of finances and the quality of life of our residents. The brick buildings were constructed in 1960, and converted to Cooperative in 1981. They consist of 74 apartments, including studios, one bedroom, Junior 4’s, and two bedroom residences. Some of the apartments include terraces. There are a variety of apartment layouts to suit the lifestyles of all. All layouts boast ample closet space. New high end, energy saving windows have recently been installed in all apartments, the elevators were recently upgraded both mechanically, and aesthetically, and are serviced by qualified mechanics, as needed. All apartments are wired for Cable TV. Those residents that do not wish to subscribe to cable television can use the master antenna, at no additional charge. All public corridors are carpeted, recently painted, and have a compactor room for trash disposal. There are several bicycle rooms throughout the complex, that are kept locked, yet available to residents 24/7. Heat and hot water is provided by two high end burners and boilers that are capable of operating on either oil or gas. Onsite parking is available for residents, as well as a limited number of individual garages.
