About this map

The estates of the North Shore dominate this mid-century landscape, reflecting the era's concentrated wealth along the coast of Long Island Sound. Grand properties such as the W R Hearst Estate, Guggenheim Estate, and Vanderbilt Estate occupy massive tracts of land, often complete with private amenities like the Whitney Polo Field. The maritime character of the region is anchored by the Sands Point Lh (New) and its predecessor, the Sands Point Lh (Old), while aviation history is marked by the New York Seaplane Airport on Manhasset Bay.
