RESTORED HISTORIC MARKER DEBUTS AT HEWLETT HOUSE

RESTORED HISTORIC MARKER DEBUTS            AT HEWLETT HOUSE


Deputy Presiding Officer Howard J. Kopel joined with Legislator Bill Gaylor, Nassau County Presiding Officer Richard J. Nicolello, Town Councilman Bruce Blakeman, Hewlett House Director Geri Barash and members of the Peninsula Kiwanis to debut a restored historic marker at Hewlett House in Hewlett.  

“I was honored to attend the unveiling of the restored Hewlett House Historical marker alongside elected officials like Councilman Bruce Blakeman, President of the Hewlett House Geri Barash, and members of Peninsula Kiwanis,” Presiding Officer Nicolello said. “The Hewlett House supports cancer patients from across the county at every stage of treatment and has helped positively impact the lives of so many in their time of need. I am pleased to see the house’s great and significant history be preserved for future generations.”

Hewlett House was built circa 1740 by the descendants of George Hewlett, the first of his family on Long Island. The home, which still sits on its original site, now almost 300 years later, serves as a community resource supporting cancer patients at every stage of treatment.
