Writing this from Virginia…..In the mid-1950’s I had my tonsils removed there. I was probably around six years old. I recall, after the surgery, I was wheeled in to what appeared to a large sun porch with bright, airy, multi-paned windows. In retrospect it seems a very civilized way to recuperate.
The Horsfields settling mainly in Manhasset & Herricks. Unless you realized this already, Howard & Greg; I believe the property owned up until 1909 by “ I U Horsefield” in Herricks is in relation to Horsfield Family. To maintain access to I U Willets Rd from the Horsefield property, the LIMP organization built a overpass when developing the parkway. Bridge was known as the IU Willets or Horsefield overpass. Horsefield family then sold this property to the Cedar Heights Association, Refer to - www.vanderbiltcupraces.com
9 dollars for a cold cheeseburger the cheese wouldn't even melt. Imagine bringing one good food truck out. No sides for anything besides chips. If you want fireworks, uber here at 8:50.
Darroll-
In the hardcover book, ‘Harbor Hill Portrait of a House’, there is a partial list of staff on page 110. Listed as an ‘outside garden worker’ is the name ‘Angelo DiPaolo’. This could very well be a misprint or minor misinformation from the author.
If you’re interested, you may join the Roslyn Landmark Society, and at the moment, there is a promotional from the Landmark Society to receive the book for joining at a certain level.
I attended Wheatley High in Old Westbury graduating in 1968. We trained and ran against Roslyn High at RANG station which was the second hardest course we ran. Wheatley won the state championship in 1967.
Donna, no problem, you are all set for the 10:00 am walking tour and two refunds have been made. You are now also a 2022 member of the Roslyn Landmark Society with your registration.
I inadvertently bought a ticket for the 1:00 pm tour instead of 10 am
I bought 2 for 10 am and want to cancel and get refund for 1 pm
How can I do that?
I can’t make the First Saturday in June walking your date but I’d love to go on one in the near future . Any upcoming dates after that weekend ? Thank you , Stephanie Goldpin RHS ‘76

My mother told me that my grandfather, Dominick DiPaolo, was the head gardener on the estate. Do you have any records of his work there?
