Community Profile
While most of New Hyde Park is unincorporated, it includes a compact village with almost 10,000 residents. The area comprises quiet neighborhoods, parks, houses of worship, civic groups and about 2,000 businesses along thriving thoroughfares, including Jericho Turnpike and Lakeville Road.
The village is working on a master plan, said Mayor Daniel Petruccio, noting the first phase of a streetscape project including new brick pavers and street lamps along Jericho Turnpike is complete. (This stretch is where a street fair, which attracts 20,000-plus people, is held each September.) A library being built on Lakeville Road should open in the summer of 2007.
The housing stock is dominated by capes and Colonials, but ranches and two-family homes also exist. Prices range from $499,000 to nearly $1 million, said Annmarie Reidy of ERA/ Caputo Realty in New Hyde Park. Although the number of houses on the market has doubled since last year, the starter market is still healthy, she said.
