Building in Mineola, Nassau County
Mineola is the Nassau County seat — a compact village of 1920s through 1960s housing stock that sits at the geographic center of the county. Homes here run from two-bedroom Capes to larger center-hall colonials along Hampton Street and Roslyn Road. The Village of Mineola has its own building department at Village Hall on Main Street, and most dormer and addition work requires a village building permit. The proximity to the LIRR Main Line station makes Mineola an active market for in-law suite additions and primary-suite dormers — homeowners are investing rather than relocating. Frank Albanese has completed over a dozen addition projects in Mineola since 2008, including rear kitchen extensions, primary suite dormers on Cape Cods, and second-story additions on expanded ranches.
