Cold Spring Harbor and the Inner Harbor define the northern shoreline of this Long Island landscape, where the boundary between Nassau and Suffolk counties bisects the terrain. The area reflects a dense suburban development pattern interspersed with significant historical and educational institutions, including Farmingdale State College and Briarcliffe College. High ground is marked by the Mannetto Hills and High Hill, while the residential corridors of Huntington Station and South Huntington are interconnected by a complex road network and the Long Island railroad line. Local history is preserved in numerous consecrated spaces, from the historic Old Burial Hill Cem near the coast to the expansive Pinelawn Cem further south. Public lands like Stillwell Woods provide a counterpoint to the intensely developed commerce centers of Melville and Plainview.
