I had the "pleasure" of visiting NEPC in Queens with a group in the mid-1980's. That area of Queens looked like London after the blitz. It gives "ghetto" a bad name. We were in a meeting up on the fifth floor. First thing the meeting leader did was to have all the women in the group pick their handbags up off the floor to prevent the creepy crawlies from hitching a ride and escaping Queens. About five minutes later I saw a large cockroach scurrying along the baseboard -- mind you, fifth floor, daytime, in a room with about twenty people. So now they want "heat." I don't think a nuclear device would cleanse that place.
NEPSC didn't open until late 1988. I should know, because I had the "pleasure" of working there.
