PSEGLI Scammers‑
Phone Phishing
Glen Cove Police warn residents of a
telephone scam that has been reported
across the country. Callers posing as the
utility company representatives, threaten to
shut off electricity if a payment isn’t made
on the same day. The scammers are
demanding payments using money cards.
The victim is told to purchase a money
card at a convenience store or local pharmacy, and instructed to put cash on the
card, or the gas and electricity service will
be disconnected. The scammer then
demand the pin number on the card. The
police said a PSEG representative would
not ask a customer to pay in a specific
method of payment. The company also
does not accept money cards.
Also, a PSEG representative would
have additional personal information about
your account, which you could verify with
the caller. If you think you are being
scammed, hang up and call PSEGLI directly about your bill. Victims of this scam
should report it to the Glen Cove Police
Department.
In another scam, Nassau County District
Attorney Kathleen Rice warned about a
phone phishing scam by cybercriminals
Car Crash in LV
looking to get personal information with
offers to help solve computer problems.
The scam involves unsolicited telephone calls from someone claiming to be
from Microsoft, and offering assistance
with computers. Once cybercriminals have
gained a victim’s trust, they can do one or
more of the following:
1. Trick people into installing malicious software on their computer.
2. Take control of a victim’s computer remotely and adjust settings in order to
leave the computer vulnerable.
3.
Can request credit card information so that cybercriminals can bill for the
phony service.
Microsoft will not make unsolicited
phone calls to help with a computer. If you
receive a phone call like this, hang up.
In Oyster Bay, there is a group of people
posing as Oyster Bay athletes and supporters of the sports teams, claiming to sell
candy for the teams. The scammers are
holding papers with school logos on them.
The papers also show official names of Mr.
Kevin Trentowski, and Dr. Dennis O'Hara.
The people doing this scam are not doing it
on behalf of the schools or teams.
The Nissan Murano was layingon it’s side.
Last Thursday, at approximately
11:00 AM, a Porsche, Audi and Nissan
were involved in an accident on Birch
Hill Road and Buckram Road in
Locust Valley. The Nissan overturned
after hitting the Audi, sideswiping it,
and then hit the Porsche’s front end
lightly. LV fire crews had to pry open
the door on the Nissan to rescue the
driver. The streets are small and tight
in the downtown area. It is hard to
believe that people are driving so fast,
that their car can overturn in such tight
quarters. One person went to the hos-
pital with minor injuries.
In an eerily similar incident, an
accident at Forest Avenue and Birch
Hill Road happened on March 10,
2013. A Jeep Grand Cherokee overturned after striking another vehicle,
and rescuers worked to free the driver.
The driver was hospitalized. Brian
Nolan, first assistant chief of the
Locust Valley Fire Department, said
his crew removed the front and rear
passenger doors of the vehicle to free
the driver. The driver of the other vehicle was not injured.
Damage to the Audi was extensive.

EDITORIAL
SOUTHERN SHAME
This past week Arizona
Governor Jan Brewer held a press
conference to denounce the Obama
administration for the cruel act of
dumping children of illegal immigrants at bus stations in her state.
This program was initiated by the
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) without any notice to
Arizona officials who must now
assume the responsibility to find
shelter and care for these unfortunate children.
Brewer, it will be remembered,
has been critical of the President
and his lack of enforcement of our
immigration laws on our Southern
border and has maintained her distance from Obama while visiting
her state. Brewer wrote to the president, “I urge you to end this dangerous and unconscionable policy
immediately and instead take
actions to fulfill the federal government’s fundamental responsibility
of protecting our homeland by
securing our nation’s borders.”
Brewer pointed out that the DHS
has abandoned these children,
some with mothers and others
unaccompanied, at “bus stations
without food, water or basic necessities.”
Apparently, DHS has transported these children from Texas
where they have entered the United
States, where the Border Patrol has
been apprehending them at a rate
of 1000 immigrants a day. The
president of the American Border
Patrol stated that the Obama
administration has been sending
the wrong message to those thinking about entering the United
States, since the Obama administration has expanded legal residence opportunities for undocumented youth which has played a
major role in the increase in illegal
border crossings.
This truly unconscionable practice by our government has
received little media attention but
the use of children and their abuse
as payback for a governor who has
been critical of the Obama administration is both cruel and heartless.
We ask, “Where is the national
media whose exposure could help
in ending this shameful practice?”

CRUISE NIGHT
To the Editor,
:
All of the residents around the vicinity
of the “cruise night” car show in Oyster
Bay, are getting sick and tired of the mess
the people who visit the area leave. The
participants who showcase these cars are
very inconsiderate. When they leave at
9:00 PM, they rev up the cars and drag
race up the streets. I have a small child
who goes to bed at 7 PM and wakes up
screaming because of the loud car that
just flew up the street. There needs to be
more police presence in the town when
this show is on. Why can’t this show be
held at the Theodore Roosevelt Park? If
this situation doesn’t change, petitions
will start going around. The police should
be around to give out tickets to the drag
racers. And people please clean up your
mess when you leave town.

FISHING IN OYSTER BAY
Sincerely, Janice Deegan
President,
American Legion Auxiliary
Unit 962, Locust Valley
To the Editor,
As a Captain and operator of four recreational fishing boats that fish for flounder
and other fish in Oyster Bay, I have been
asked about the claim that these fish no
longer exist in Oyster Bay, or that somehow the operations of the Flower shellfish
farmers have made them scarce.
I understand that local newspapers
have published this twisted tale, apparently without checking its veracity with people such as myself, who could have provided the truth if asked. I have been fishing this area for more than 30 years.
My boats are based at City Island in
The Bronx and trust me, I would not
waste the money to take my boats that
distance to Oyster Bay if I didn’t know
with a great deal of certainty that my passengers would catch flounder, porgies,
and fluke, each in its season.
I can assure the non-fishing residents
of the area that Flower’s shellfishing
operation in Oyster Bay is not causing
any negative effects on our fishing; as far
as the recreational fishermen are concerned - they already know that.
My 30-plus year’s experience has also
shown me that the shellfish farmers’ cre-
VETERANS BACKLOG REDUCTION ACT
To the Editor,
As your readers may know, the
Department of Veterans’ Affairs (VA) has
come under fire for delays with veterans’
benefits and care at their facilities. While I
have already called for a criminal investigation into wrongdoing at the VA, I am writing to inform readers of my bill that would
enact a common-sense solution to ensure
veterans aren’t left waiting for claims.
Currently, New York veterans wait an
average of 297 days to receive disability
compensation and benefits, a time table
that falls far short of the 125-day goal the
VA has set for filling these claims. This is
unacceptable.
That’s why I introduced the Veterans
Backlog Reduction Act. This bill would
give provisional benefits to veterans filing for disability if a claim hasn’t been
processed within 125 days. The provisional benefit would be based on what a
veteran with a similar disability receives
or would be calculated based on a 40 percent disability rating. Put simply, this legislation would ensure no veteran filing a
claim has to wait more than125 days for
the benefits they’ve earned.
To date, my office has recovered more
than $7.4 million in back pay and owed
benefits to my constituents by cutting
through the red tape at the VA. If you, or
a veteran you know, needs help with a VA
benefits claim, please make my office
your first resource.
You can reach my office at (631) 7777391, (516) 505-1448 or (718) 875-1675.
We are eager to help.

ANIMAL WASTE
To the Editor,
Everyone on Long Island and in most
shore towns in The United States have no
doubt seen this sign or one like it: "NO
ANIMALS ALLOWED.” Animal waste
transmits disease pollutes our harbors and
contaminates our drinking water." The goal
of this signage is obvious; we don't want
your dog defecating on the beach. There are
other signs along the street that warn you
about a fine if you do not pick up after your
dog. I am amazed that some people heed
this warning, then proceed to pick up the
dog waste, tie it up in a plastic bag and
shove it in the sewers along West Harbor
Road in Bayville! What's the point? We're
all worse off because of those few people.
Not only are they reintroducing the feces
back into the water system, they are clogging the sewers so that the next time it rains,
water will be pooling around West Harbor
Road long after the rains have stopped. I
have two suggestions: stop throwing out
your dog poop anywhere except in a
garbage receptacle, preferably your own.
The other is for Bayville Village to put out
a few garbage cans on West Harbor Road so
these lazy individuals have no reason to
improperly dispose of dog waste. It's unfortunate that we need to cater to the hypocrites of Bayville, but I this case I'd say we
will all win with better dog walking behaviors and improved sanitation around town.
Thoughtfully signed,
Laura Tini

Bayville Village Hall
The Glen Cove Arts Council recently
made it possible for ten girls from the
Glen Cove Boys & Girls Club to visit the
K. DiResta Collective in Sea Cliff for an
hour of fun making jewelry.
Collective owner Kathleen DiResta,
assisted by her friend and fellow artist
Heidi Hunt, and her children Katherine
and William, helped the girls, accompanied by GCBGC Arts Coordinator Sean
O’Callaghan, to design their own
bracelets and necklaces from the numerous varieties of beads displayed in trays
for them to choose from.
Each girl also made a pendant with
her initials stamped into it.
“I was so happy to have them” said
Kathleen DiResta who really enjoyed
working with the group, and was also
grateful to the Glen Cove Arts Council
for making the visit possible.
GCAC is a non-profit organization
that brings the arts to local youth through
visits to museums, galleries and theater,
and in addition offers scholarships in the
arts to those with talent but without the
financial means to pursue their dreams.

DENISON OF THE NOT-SO-DEEP
• ADAM M. GROHMAN
The Jakobson’s boatyard was a bevy of
activity as cameramen snapped photographs of the soon to be launched boat.
While many boats had been sent down the
weighs of the facility in the heart of Oyster
Bay, New York, the June 9th, 1962 ceremony was a first of its kind. The vessel, one
hundred and four feet in length was one of
the most advanced vessels in the world.
Powered by a fourteen thousand horsepower engine, it was designed not to ply the surface of the waters of the seas but rather sail
atop them on the retractable wing-like foils
and after reaching a speed of twenty-six
knots, she would alight from the friction of
the water and zip across the water nearly
five feet above the surface on her port and
starboard mounted foils. The twin foils,
along with her stern foil would allow for the
boat to free herself from the confines of
normal water travel and attain speeds in
excess of nearly sixty knots. With her set of
non-traditional sea legs set for testing,
many remembered an earlier voyage completed on a much different surface the previous August when the H.S. Denison first
set sail.
Before the H.S. Denison could alight
her way across the waters of the world, she
first had to be designed and built. In 1957,
Colonel Charles R. Denison of the
Maritime Administration authorized a seventy-five thousand dollar study to determine the feasibility of utilizing hydrofoil
technology for commercial use. Grumman
engineers were confident that the technology was available or could be developed. An
agreement was reached in 1958 that provided one and a half million dollars with subsequent costs to be incurred by private
industry. Though hydrofoil technology had
been successfully proven, building an
ocean-going
commercial
hydrofoil
remained an unknown entity. By July of
1961 the hydrofoil, built to the specifica-
tions and requirements of the MARAD, had
been accomplished. Though Grumman
engineers and craftsmen had completed the
building of the massive boat, she remained
untested.
On August 1, 1961, nearly a year and a
half of preparation was set to the test as the
novel boat was laid upon a flatbed truck.
Hauling the twenty-four tons of hull and her
fifteen ton cradle was no easy undertaking.
The trip across Long Island, from Bethpage
to the lapping waters of Oyster Bay Harbor,
was only twelve miles in length but it
would not be an easy voyage. Even though
her superstructure had been removed, the
H.S. Denison still stood nearly seventeen
feet off of the ground. The route for the
overland trip was carefully studied. For sixteen months leading up to the travel date,
the United States Trucking Corporation
worked with county and state agencies to
ensure that power lines, traffic signals, and
other overhead contrivances were fixed,
repaired, or altered, to allow for vertical
clearance. Railroad schedules were determined, bumps in roads were repaired, and
the proper escorts and permits were
attained. For a boat designed to sail atop the
waves at breakneck speeds, her first trip
would be painstakingly slow. The convoy
set out before dawn and after nearly nine
and a half hours and after moving no more
than a mile and a half each hour, the boat
carefully completed the trip. Though her
first voyage had not been lightning fast it
had proven successful.
She was finally launched into the waters
of Oyster Bay Harbor in June of 1962.
Once tests were completed, a commercial
shipping company would be utilized to test
the boat under normal conditions in ferrying both passengers and cargo. With the
ability to ferry between seventy and eighty
passengers at high speeds, the future of
hydrofoil technology appeared as if the sky
was the limit. In late June of 1962, a few
weeks after her historic overland voyage,
the H.S. Denison, fully
equipped with her foils and
power plant, leapt nearly
clear from the surface of the
waters of the Long Island
Sound. During her first few
runs, she reached nearly
fifty knots. Manning the
helm was Captain William
P.O. Clarke, Jr. Piloting the
craft, alongside his crew of
four, was an interesting
experience.
“The motion sensation at 60 knots in the
Denison,” Captain Clarke explained in an
interview was “similar to that of riding the
Lexington Avenue subway on a long
express run…speed with quick little rocking movements from side to side.” The test
crew, housed in the boat’s aircraft styled
pilot house, communicated by headsets as
they “flashed” atop the water. Working as a
team, the crew was confident in their ability to address all of the normal issues that
arose while crisscrossing a busy waterway
including, if the situation arose, with how to
handle a foil being sheered off by “striking
a reef or heavy flotsam,” or if an “extreme
roll or pitch” caused the H.S. Denison to
lose altitude. Reaction to different type of
sea conditions, as Captain Clarke noted,
was just one of the many tests required
before the boat would be transferred for
commercial use.
Testing would continue until August 30,
1963 when she was finally accepted by the
Secretary of Commerce, Luther H. Hodges,
on behalf of the United States Government.
Though her final cost towered at over ninemillion dollars Hodges confidently claimed
on the grounds of the U.S. Merchant Marine
Academy, that the event marked the “beginning of a new industry in the United States.”
The H.S. Denison soon found herself the
toast of the maritime industry as she completed a tour of various seaside locations
along the eastern seaboard during the fall of
1963. Though Grace Lines had already been
H.S. Denison
selected for commercial use, the plan was
scrapped due to the estimated cost of outfitting the boat for passengers and cargo. By the
following year the hydrofoil was turned over
to the United States Navy where she was utilized as a training platform for a possible new
era of above the waves sailors and in 1965,
she was in the waters off of Point Mugu at
the Pacific Missile Range. Despite her success, her future as a commercial hydrofoil
had already passed. The H.S. Denison, and
those craft that followed in her wake, proved
the successful design of those men, like the
craft’s namesake, believed could be built and
flown above the surface of the sea. Like other
projects in the late nineteen fifties and midsixties including the nuclear ship N.S.
Savannah, the H.S. Denison and her design
may have proven herself too costly and too
fast for commercial utilization.
Though the H.S. Denison’s voyages
along the waters of the Long Island Sound
marked an historic first of its kind, her initial voyage from Bethpage to Oyster Bay,
well before her wing-like foils had even
been attached, marked an interesting historic entry into the annals of the New York
maritime record. In the diametrically different voyages, one excruciatingly slow and
the other lightning fast, the H.S. Denison, a
revolutionary vessel of ingenuity and
design, had made history like few other
vessels could ever take credit, not only on
land on Long Island but also both above
and on the waters of the Long Island Sound.
Origin of Father’s Day
Sonora Dodd
• BY ADAM GROHMAN
Father’s Day, celebrated on June 15th,
2014, marks the annual celebration of
fathers and their paternal nurturing and
guidance. While several theories abound
to the origins of the annual celebration,
Ms. Sonora Dodd, daughter of Civil War
veteran William Jackson Smart, developed the idea after attending a Mother’s
Day celebration in 1909. Her father single-handedly raised Sonora and her five
brothers and sisters after their mother
died during childbirth and his continued
efforts remained an integral part of her
understanding and appreciation for his
work. Mrs. Dodd wanted to ensure that
his efforts and the efforts of fathers everywhere were celebrated as equals throughout the land. Though the principle seemed
warranted and just, establishing the annual celebration as a national observance
was a several decade crusade.
In her hometown of Spokane, she
readily gained support from the Spokane
Ministerial Association and the local
chapter of the Young Men’s Christian
Association. According to the Spokane
Chronicle on June 6, 1910, the official
petition listed “The beautiful custom of
Mother’s Day suggests the question,.
“Why not a Fathers’ Day?” The petition
continued stating that “a Fathers’ Day
would call attention to such constructive
teachings from the pulpit as would naturally point out…” including “the father’s
place in the home…the training of children, the safeguarding of the marriage
tie,” and “the protection of womanhood
and childhood.” As noted in the petition,
“the meaning of this, whether in the light
of religion or of patriotism, is so apparent
as to need no argument in behalf of such
a day.” Though Sonora wanted to honor
her father’s birthday of June 5th, organizers relented to celebrating the event on
the third Sunday of June. Three weeks
after the petition was issued, the first
Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19,
1910. Though successful, the idea of having an annual celebration was hampered
by many who believed that such an event
was unnecessary and only a ploy for
expanded commercialism. Despite the
naysayers, Sonora trudged on with her
campaign to ensure that fathers everywhere were provided their own special
day. With each passing year, additional
cities across the United States began to
celebrate the occasion and by 1916,
President Woodrow Wilson offered his
support by attending the annual Spokane
tradition. President Calvin Coolidge also
heralded the idea but it would not be until
President Lyndon B. Johnson offered a
presidential proclamation declaring the
third Sunday every June as Father’s Day
did the idea finally take hold. Six years
later President Richard M. Nixon finally
established the observance of Father’s
Day by proclamation and the day has
been celebrated ever since.
A memorial to Sonora Dodd recognizing her efforts at the YMCA in Riverfront
Park, Spokane, Washington, was erected
immortalizing her contribution as the
Mother of Father’s Day and each year, on
the third Sunday of June, fathers across
the land are celebrated for their place in
society, due to her diligent devotion to her
father and his memory.

Raynham Hall Cocktail Party Celebrates Founding Friends
Barbara Curry, Howard Sutherland and Nicole Menchise
• VICTORIA CROSBY
Raynham Hall Museum celebrated
the 60th anniversary of the incorporation
of Friends of Raynham Hall, Inc,. with a
cocktail reception held in the garden
under a tent, on a beautiful spring
evening. The event titled, Founding
Friends: For the Love of Raynham Hall,
and is the title of the exhibit celebrating
the founders who had been instrumental
in restoring the saltbox house, once the
home of Samuel Townsend, and full of
history of Oyster Bay and the center of
the Culper Spy Ring.
The invitation used an old photograph
of Mrs Miner Clifford Hill in a rose garden. Beginning in 1950, Mrs Hill, formerly Carolyn Mathers Pettuga, was the
driving force behind the creation of the
Alex Sutherland, Harriet Gerard Clark and Rebecca Finnelli
Friends of Raynham Hall, leading her
friends to help restore and furnish the
landmarked house and to open it to the
public.
Guests sipped wine, southsides and
other mixed drinks and nibbled on delicious hors d’oeuvres by Periwinkles of
Oyster Bay. Each table under the tent was
adorned with a vase of beautiful fresh
flowers.
Alex Sutherland, Director of Public
Relations, welcomed guests and thanked
them for their support.
Inside the house the exhibit showed
photographs through the years of the
evolution of Raynham Hall, including
photos of some of the people present at
the party.
The house is owned by the Town of
Patricia Sands and Anne Nolte
Oyster Bay and Friends of Raynham Hall
operate it as a museum. The style of the
building had been changed from the original saltbox design to a more Victorian
style in the 1880s and then back to its
original Colonial style in the 1950s.
A capital campaign is under way to
restore the museum building, reopen the
slaves’, servants’, and children’s quarters and to restore the Lincoln Market
building as an education center for the
museum.
In 1991 Raynham Hall Museum was
awarded accreditation by the American
Association of Museums, and is the only
historic house museum on Long island to
achieve that honor.
Raynham Hall Museum is located at
20, West Main Street in Oyster Bay. For

Flag Day
Flag Day is on Saturday, June 14, and
Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor John Venditto
asks residents to show their patriotism by celebrating Old Glory and properly displaying
the U.S. Flag.
“The Stars and Stripes has been a symbol
of the triumphs, resiliency and courage of the
United States of America, its citizens and
those who serve in the Armed Forces defending this great nation,” said Supervisor
Venditto. “It is quite fitting that we have a special day of observance honoring the flag that
many have sacrificed their lives defending.”
Flag Day occurs during a particularly
patriotic time of the year, between Memorial
Day and the Fourth of July, and while Flag
Day is not a federal holiday, Supervisor
Venditto said it is a special and important
American day of celebration. A history buff,
Supervisor Venditto noted that the raising of
the American flag has often occurred during
many iconic events in American history. He
continued that the American flag being planted on the moon’s surface by Apollo astronauts, and soldiers raising the flag during the
Battle of Iwo Jima, are just two of many such
moments.
The Supervisor added that Francis Scott
Key was inspired to write a poem, which later
became known as “The Star Spangled
Banner,” after seeing that the flag was still flying over Fort McHenry following a British
attack during the War of 1812. The Supervisor
compares that event to a more recent event.
“After the horrifying attack on the World
Trade Center, many of us took inspiration that
even amidst the devastation at Ground Zero,
the brave firefighters proudly raised the Stars
and Stripes.” said the Supervisor.
OB Garden Tour
Old Glory
When displaying the American flags, the
Supervisor reminds everyone to follow protocols, such as not allowing the flag to touch the
ground or anything beneath it, not flying the
flag in inclement weather, and illuminating
the flag when it is flown at night. Flags that
are worn and in a condition that’s not worthy
of being used as a symbol of the United States
should be destroyed in a dignified manner.
Supervisor Venditto suggests bringing such
flags to a local American Legion or Veterans
of Foreign War post, where such flags are
destroyed in a proper manner. The Supervisor
also advises residents to contact a local
America Legion or Veterans of Foreign War
Post for more information on U.S. flag etiquette, or visit the Town’s website at
www.oysterbaytown.com to download a flag
etiquette brochure.
“Let us take part in Flag Day activities, to
show respect for the symbol of our great
nation – a land we are very fortunate to call
our home,” said Supervisor Venditto. “I look
forward to seeing the American flag proudly
displayed throughout the Town on Flag Day.”

Living Water for Women
In Glen Cove a non-profit called
Living Water for Women, Inc. helps
women get back on their feet. Women
who have had a drug addiction, and were
incarcerated are helped by the organization. Lisa Cohn, the founding Executive
Director of Living Water, aims to assist
women in overcoming their addiction,
and lead to a transformation in the
women's lives. The unprecedented surge
in drug and alcohol addiction in Long
Island is affecting the community as
never before.
Part of Living Water's philosophy is
that an addict needs to have self-dignity
and find self-value through workshops
and seminars that help them find their
innate creativity. The progam provides
housing, clothing, personal counseling
with a psychotherapist and psychologist,
group therapy, jobs skills training and life
skills training.
Lisa volunteered at DART (drug,
alcohol, rehab treatment) program at the
Nassau County Correctional Center in
2001, and decided to commit herself to
the aid of women incarcerated for drugs
and alcohol addictions. Also 80% of
women in jail with drug, and alcohol
addictions have suffered from domestic
violence and abuse. While running a successful business for 30 years, Lisa has
been very involved in the Rotary and the
Glen Cove Chamber of Commerce.
A successful fundraiser for the program was held last Saturday. Living

Competing against hundreds of Long

to connect her passion for golf with
mathematics in her project. “I researched
the math behind a golf shot,” explained
Kedia. “I proved that each different golf
club corresponds to its own distance due
to varying shaft lengths and loft angles,
which explains why golfers have to carry
so many different clubs.”

Old Westbury Statue Scuttlebutt
• LC COLGATE
In October of 2011, the New York
Post reported that famed New York City
real estate mogul Aby Rosen had purchased the A. Conger Goodyear house in
Old Westbury for $3.4 million. Now Mr.
Rosen is back in the Long Island news,
garnering headlines in media outlets
such as the New York Times, Daily
News and Newsday concerning his
intention to place a 33-foot high “painted
bronze sculpture of a beyond naked
woman with an exposed fetus” on his
property.
On Tuesday, June 3, village mayor
Fred Carillo was quoted in the New York
Times as saying “it (the statue) is out of
character with the neighborhood” and
suggested that perhaps the edifice would
be better placed outside a building devoted to obstetrics and gynecology. The
Times also reported that this story has
gained coverage in places as far away as
Romania. The Damien Hirst statue,
weighing in at 13-tons, is currently in
position on Mr. Rosen’s property. It is
covered with a tarp as Old Westbury officials debate its fate. Representatives for
Mr. Rosen were apparently testifying in
front of Old Westbury board officials on
Monday, June 2.
Among Old Westbury villagers, discussion about the questionable statue has
purportedly been respectful and perhaps
that is because it is only visible from Mr.
Rosen’s private road, which leads to his
home as well as just a handful of others.
The news has reported that a school bus
also travels the lane. Mr. Rosen has
acquiesced to the requests of the village
board and has agreed to maintain planting and hedges to shield it from public
view as well as turn the statue so the
more “graphic” side is not facing the
road.
According to Realtor.com, Mr.
Rosen’s home was built in 1938 by
Edward Durell Stone and later owned by
Mr. Goodyear, who was a founder and
the first president of the Museum of
Modern Art. It has five bedrooms, six
bathrooms, and is situated on 5.52 acres.
