Our good friend Adele Tierney ran the decorating store downstairs - I think it as called the the Shooting Box and had THE MOST wonderful home upstairs!
I grew up on Magnolia Lane at the bottom of the hill from Country Estates. As the development was being built, my parents would take us for a ride through the new neighborhood of "really big" houses. We would watch the progress of this awesome expensive neighborhood of giant houses. I said to my parents during one of those drives, " One day I'm going to marry someone rich and move to one of the round houses."
Thanx for sharing. My mother loved & enjoyed decorating our ultra modern house. We moved into house at 25 Elm Dr. In 1962. I was 11 yrs old. About 10 yrs.after my father passed, my mother sold her beloved home in 1985.💕
Alert: As of March 16, 2021, there is an opportunity for Roslyn community residents 60 years and older and education workers to receive the COVID-19 vaccinations in Sea Cliff. The program is a collaboration of the Roslyn School District and Ms. Elizabeth Lempert R.PH., CEO of BesScription Pharmacy.
Donna, of the hundreds of homes built in Country Estates, I believe only three Circular Houses were constructed. See the Circular House profile to view all three: https://www.roslynlandmarks.org/profiles/the-circular-house

My moms friend used to live there back in the 1970's. Loved that house!

Reading the Valentine house brochure contributors list brought great memories of village families and preservation society members of the 60’s.

As Flower Hill’s historian (and as a Roslyn person), I cannot even begin to tell you how thrilled I am to see and hear this! Thanks, RLS!!

I and my best friends were painting students of Charlie Pasquelina at the Roslyn School of Painting in the early 1970’s. He was a wonderful teacher.
