‘Endangered Historic Place’
The Society for the Preservation of Long Island Antiquities, a non-profit organization, included four sites on its annual list of endangered historic places in 2011. One of these was the Carll Farmstead. Huntington’s historian, Robert C. Hughes, lives near Commack. In a New York Times article, he nominated the location and said the following about the historic property. “It’s a wonderful time capsule not only because of the collection of buildings but also because of their contents. Attention must be paid to this property, and money must be raised.”
