Nothing like spending a rainy April Saturday with good company and a little elbow grease! 🧽🫧

In honor of National Historic Marker Weekend 2026, my dad and I braved the rain and cleaned 10 historic markers across Greenlawn and Centerport. Swipe to see the before and after of the dirtiest one… what a difference!

Historic markers preserve the stories that make our communities special, so we’re proud to do our part!

Northport Historical Society Presentation (Outstanding Triumph: The Veterans Administration Neuropsychiatric Hospital at Northport, 1925-1940) at the Harborfields Library on January 22 from 2:30-3:30 presented by Robert Browne.

When the Northport VA Hospital opened to treat World War I ‘shell-shocked’ veterans, the visiting public marveled at its beautiful 550-acre grounds, pleasing architecture and cutting-edge therapies. Lost to historical memory, the fascinating story of the years 1925-1940 confirms the New York Times’ 1928 description of the hospital as an “Outstanding Triumph.”
