Shady Lane, Coram (Hope: for sale, condos, houses)

[thebobs]

Trying to find out what that fenced in area is across the street from 17 Shady Lane. Satellite image shows an 18 wheeler parked outside. Anyone know what that is? Sign said warning no trespassing.

I'm not positive.I have passed it many times before but I think it's either a satellite location for the electric or water company.

Remove the sign, hide it well.
Hop over fence and scope it out.
If you get caught, just act bewildered and explain that you have sudden attacks of dimentia and have no idea how you ended up on private property

hotkarl, I'll do just that and I'll tell them you gave me permission. :P

lancet71, if it is indeed a satellite location, would there be anything harmful there? I ask this because I saw a house across the street for sale but I have to admit, whatever that site is has me concerned. And i'm not sure if i'm comfortable with an 18 wheeler sitting outside there. Not sure how often this goes on.

The whole area south of there looks like something sketchy from the satellite map I just looked at ...a big sandy area and then all these tractor trailers ...I'd look into it further before buying there.

Go with your gut, just the fact that this has become a concern with you means it's probabally something to stay away from. Also, what you are thinking right now is probabally the same thing a potential buyer will be thinking in the future should for some reason you decide to sell.

The 18 wheeler has nothing to do with the sight.I previously worked for the post office in Coram so I passed the house a little bit.I think on the left side of the street they owned a moving and storage business and some other type as well.A few times I saw a guy behind that fence who looked like a LIPA guy with a clipboard.
If you're asking whats behind the fence if it's harmful,I doubt it;but there are some houses towards the end of the block which seem to have alot of people living in them(10-15 people,4 bedrooms) and personally they might be the reason to be more concerned with that block. Hope this helps.

The sand is the backside of the old social services building on Rt 112 (3600).Someone new moved into the building in October.It goes at least 200 yards back and in my opinion I think they'll eventually build condos or townehouses there in the next few years.

I found out that sand area was a sand mine and back in 2002 that area was proposed to be multi-family dwellings. I assume that it got turned down since its 2009 and nothing's been done there yet.

Now that you mention that there were/are 10-15 people living in houses at the end, that is a bit of a concern.
