Thank you for the updates. As a former resident of the area and a long time docent of the Starkins house in the past, I appreciate all the wonderful progress being made to preserve the history of Roslyn. That being said, it would be a good idea for someone to proof read the headings of articles in the newsletter. The word is spelled, "descendant" not "descendent", I am not intending to be picky but a fine establishment like the Roslyn Landmark Society deserves to have a good impression.
So pleased that this beautiful gate is being restored!! Lived there for 25 years and it was always welcoming to see this gate upon entering Country Estates
Andy, excellent observation. Harbor Hill Road is a county road in the Village of East Hills. I will forward your comment to Mayor Michael Koblenz and Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman.
Wondering why there isn’t a safe way for kids to leave the back of RHS to get to 7-11, etc. There is no sidewalk on most of that area on Harbor Hill Rd. Can the district or village put in a set of stairs that leads to a crosswalk by the intersection of Mimosa and HH, where there is a sidewalk, albeit not facing traffic. I think an inevitable accident will occur without extra safety measures.

Landmarking a standard microwave tower sounds peculiar! not clear why the monopole tower is so “monostrous”? Is it significantly taller?

There are no pictures of the interior. What was the furniture like? What period did it represent?
