Lloyd Harbor is avillage in theTown of Huntington inSuffolk County, on theNorth Shore ofLong Island, inNew York, United States. As of the2010 census, the village's population was 3,660.[2]
In 1654, theMatinecockNative Americans sold 3,000 acres (12 km2) of what is now called Lloyd Neck to English settlers fromOyster Bay. The Matinecock referred to the region asCaumsett ("place by sharp rock"). In 1676, James Lloyd acquired the neck, which was then taken over by his son Henry. Henry Lloyd farmed the land and erected a house, which still survives inCaumsett State Park. After his death in 1763, his son Joseph built theJoseph Lloyd Manor House, which he was forced to abandon by the British during theRevolutionary War. The British built several fortifications in the neck, including Fort Franklin. Henry Lloyd IV was the last Lloyd to own the estate, in 1841. In the 1880s, it became a stop forsteamboats coming fromNew York City, bringing tourists and wealthy New Yorkers.
In 1886, Lloyd's Neck, which was then part of the town of Oyster Bay and had earlier been known as Queens Village, was set off and separated fromQueens County and annexed to the town of Huntington inSuffolk County.[3][4][5][6][7][8]
The 1900s ushered the era of the Long IslandGold Coast, and various wealthy families began to buy land and build seaside mansions and estates. These included William Matheson,Marshall Field III,Ronald Conklin,Harold Dimppel, Sr.,Ferdinand Eberstadt andGeorge McKesson. In 1926, Lloyd Neck and West Neck became incorporated as a municipality which was named Lloyd Harbor.
Robin Gibb,Charles Lindbergh,Jerry Seinfeld andBilly Joel have each lived on the Neck for a time. Currently many of these estates have been adapted for other uses. Marshall Field III's estate is nowCaumsett State Historic Park, and the Conklin estate is aRoman Catholicseminary. Others have become a county park and a wildlife refuge. Charles Robertson's estate is now the Banbury Center, a small conference center ofCold Spring Harbor Laboratory.
In 1969 theLong Island Lighting Company proposed locating anuclear power plant in the community. Local opposition quickly defeated the plan, withFerdinand Eberstadt donating his 80-acre (320,000 m2) estate to theU.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to becomeTarget Rock National Wildlife Refuge.
According to theUnited States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 10.6 square miles (27 km2), of which 9.4 square miles (24 km2) is land and 1.3 square miles (3.4 km2), or 12.03%, is water.[9]
