There is no other property like this in the City of Greater New York. Its elevation 
is 240 feet. It is sightly, dry and healthful; no malaria. Manhattan is in plain view on a 
clear day, also charming views in every direction, and at night the sight of Man¬ 
hattan with its brilliant illuminations is enchanting. 
Little Neck Hills is the summit of that locality, and is just far enough from the railroad 
station to eliminate many unpleasant features usually present about a station.
