Leslie - thank you for your thoughts! Educating the public and the community on the importance of this structure is so important, and I'm certain this idea will be considered!

Thank you John!
Regarding the Mackay Mansion ….is there a possibility that a metal street sign historical marker with metal photo and a small amount of info ….can be erected on the corner(s) or on along Roslyn Rd or nearby streets ?
Is there a printed list of the names on the Roll of Honor? Also looking for the best picture of the Roll of Honor to be displayed at the Roslyn Presbyterian Service Honoring Veterans on November, 9, at 10 am. Thank you!
Fix the wheel I think his name is John Santos he lives next to the park. He said years ago he fix the wheel and the turned him what's the problem just get it done. Fix the Wheel.
Do you think the owners of the hous(es) on the precise spot where the entrance to the MaKay mansion stood would agree to or object to the placement of an historical marker at the curb line in front of their homes?
This is just so wonderful to read! Great to see the Nassau County Executive recognize history and its importance to the whole of Nassau COunty. I have not met Bruce Blakeman in person but knew his Dad Bob Blakeman well. Bob and I belonged t the same pre WWII national car club for classic luxury cars and would have a coffee together once a week for years at the cruise night on Dogwood Avenue in Franklin Square. Bob would bring his Pierce Arrow, Lincoln or Cadillac V16 town car and I would bring one of my Packards or my 31 Franklin. Bob was an outstanding enthusiast and like me he loved to drive his old cars.
We think these things only happen in our country (which is less developed): mistreatment of animals, children, women, and the elderly; theft or robbery of plaques and/or monuments; fraud involving associations and societies; but when we learn that this happens all over the world, we reflect on how bad human beings can be, regardless of social class!... But, thank God, there are people like Henry Bergh (ASPCA) and Elbridge Thomas Gerry (SPCC) and those who recognize and honor compassionate people around the world, to make us believe that we can still place our trust in humanity! Congratulations! (JF/MG/BR)

Richard, it's possible. It would likely require an approval from the Village of East Hills.
