GROWING UP IN GLENDALE, ATTENDING SACRED HEART SCHOOL,AND HAVING 31 YEARS OF REAL ESTATE EXPERIENCE, MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE DEALING WITH A REPUTABLE NEIGHBORHOOD REALTOR THAN DEALING WITH A FRANCHISE REALTOR.
EXAMPLE: LISTED 81-09 MARGARET PLACE, A 1 FAMILY DETACHED HOME, AND ON THIS PAST SATURDAY I HAD AN OPEN HOUSE. A TOTAL OF 11 BUYERS CAME AND THE HOUSE WAS SOLD BEFORE THE OPEN HOUSE CONCLUDED. PRICING IT RIGHT IS KEY. WITH 31 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, KNOWING THE NEIGHBORHOOD,
AND MARKETING THE HOME PROPERLY MAKES THE ART OF SELLING SIMPLE. BUYERS ARE EDUCATED TODAY, SEEING HOMES FOR 2,3, AND 4 MONTHS, SO PRICING A HOME RIGHT WHILE RATES ARE STILL UNDER 5%
IS CRUCIAL. SOMETIMES, SOME REALTORS JUST TAKE A LISTING AT ANY PRICE A HOMEOWNER WANTS, WHICH IS NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE HOMEOWNER.
I SERVICE GLENDALE, MIDDLE VILLAGE,MASPETH, RIDGEWOOD,REGO PARK, AND FOREST HILLS AND MY OFFICE IS LOCATED IN MIDDLE VILLAGE, 73-01 METROPOLITAN AVENUE,NY11379

I was recently introduced to the New York State Assembly by the Assemblyman Joseph Saladino, President of the NYS Italian American Legislators, and recognized by the Assembly Speaker, Peter Rivera, who lauded me for my accomplishments and invited me to come back as a guest of the Assembly. The Assemblymen applauded me, cheered and spent a few minutes taking pictures with me and my daughter, who will attend Cummings School of Veterinary Science at Tufts University in the fall. As many of the readers may know, the introduction and recognition of a special guest to the Assembly is an honor bestowed upon people whose activities have enriched the culture of the State.
Truthfully, I did not know what to expect… I’m not much of a social person. I like to write. I like to create. I’ve always stayed on the side, out of the limelight, which is hard to do as a magazine executive (I have been for 21 years the Editorial Director of L’Idea magazine, a bilingual quarterly published in Brooklyn since 1974). I kept on saying to myself that maybe I shouldn’t have been there. The enthusiasm of the Assemblymen surprised me so much that I did not know where to look, and I am glad I did not have to make a speech.
They wanted to take pictures with me, which I really thought was funny. This was one of the few times I was being recognized personally, and I felt fulfilled and satisfied. That was the most unusual part, because I was honored to take pictures with them, but they were asking to take pictures with me. I was like a child in the FAO Schwarz toy store. It was really peculiar.
I am the product of a Public School education, since I graduated from John Jay High School in Brooklyn, Kingsborough Community College, Queens College, New York City Technical College and SUNY Purchase College. I published two books (Caro Fantozzi and Doña Flor) and two more are on the way. I wrote and published countless articles in Canada, Italy, France, Switzerland, Greece and USA. I organized and assisted in the creation of many events in our community, as a member of the Sons of Italy, the Lions International and the Circolo Culturale di Mola.
I am, most of all, a Brooklyn child, since I spent my youth in Carroll Gardens playing soccer with then not-yet-champ Vito Antuofermo,my college years working in the evenings in Brooklyn Heights, at the famed Queen Restaurant, and driving to Astoria to meet my date. Of that, I am proud. I hope all my friends in Brooklyn and Queens will feel the same way about my recognition by the NYS

On November 19, 2010, I witinessed an accident. I was on the Q 29 bus, at about 10:50 in the A.M. and the bus had just made the turn behind the Queens Center Mall at 92nd street. A blind man and his aide was preparing to alight the bus. In the process of doing so he fell getting off the bus. The bus driver never made a move to help him. He just sat in his drivers seat and watched. A woman waiting for the bus helped the man up. I heard her tell the bus driver when she got on the bus that he had been too far away from the curb. Oh, there was no response to that either. After the man was upright and the new passenger had stepped on to the bus, the driver took off like a bat at of hell. Literally.
I was upset that this had happened to begin with and the fact it was not handled properly by the bus driver. I sent a complaint to the MTA, that same day, which included the bus number, plus all the facts that took place. On Wedneday, January 5th I received a response from the MTA to the effect that they are backlogged. They are backlogged because of an ongoing merger of their operations, administration and personnel. My goodness how many complaints do they actually have?
They are presently in the process of clearing their backlog. Well lordy, lordy after 47 days I get jibber-jabber. Be still my heart. What kind of bureaucratic gobbledly-gook is this? This is just letting me know that they are going to let me know.
It’s perfect, after all this time they probably will not be able to find who drove which bus where. It’s just not right. I have witnessed only one other accident while on a bus, and the incident was handled so professionaly by the bus driver. I guess was misguided, I thought they all went to the same classes about what to do in the event of….
Careful people, take heed, these are bus drivers in whom we place our safety on a daily basis. Scary isn’t it.
Sincerely,
Lucille Giordano
