The boundary between NASSAU CO and SUFFOLK CO splits this densely settled region of Long Island, where suburban growth and historic hamlets meet. Centered on the ridge lines of West Hills and Mannetto Hills, the landscape is defined by its deep roots, visible in the high concentration of burial grounds such as Old Burial Hill Cem and the vast Long Island National Cem. The map illustrates the development of residential corridors surrounding Huntington Station and Syosset, as well as the transition from the waterfront at Cold Spring Beach to the interior highlands of Half Hollow Hills. Large institutional tracts like Farmingdale State College stand out against the tight grid of modern suburban streets. This survey captures a moment where the mid-century industrial legacy of East Farmingdale sits alongside the older village character of Huntington and Cold Spring Harbor.
