Title

Suburbanization begins in Cold Spring Harbor

What occurred

In 1907, the John C. Walters' property was divided into 38 plots and 3 streets were laid out. These roads made transportation through the village easier, and the plots of lands had homes built on them and promoted migration to Cold Spring Harbor. This is the first subdivision of land in Cold Spring Harbor that is classified as suburbanization.
