I Love Astoria

I would like to know the exact address. Hard to figure out where it is. They all look so similar. How did they enter the building? Someone buzz them in? See them smiling and laughing in the elevator? They look like they are posing or acting. Strange. Door should be locked and have a mechanism to make it slam shut. Don’t ever buzz anyone in unless they call you on the phone or you can see them at the door via camera.
