Hamlet of Stony Brook, NY Website
Situated on the prestigious North Shore on Long Island, NY, Stony Brook is home to numerous attractions, magnificent nature and historic grounds. The hamlet's population is a little over over 14,000. Some of Stony Brook's places of interest include the State University of New York at Stony Brook, The Stony Brook School, "Stony Brook Village", The Long Island Museum of American Art, History and Carriages, and The Stony Brook Medical Center. Only a short distance to the white sand beaches at Fire Island, the beautiful Hamptons resorts and the East End vineyards, the historic village lies at the geographic midpoint of Long Island, approximately 60 miles east of Manhattan and 60 miles west of Montauk Point, making it easily accessible from both directions. As part of the Three Villages, consisting of Stony Brook, Old Field and Setauket, the history of the town has been closely linked to that of Ward Melville, a local businessman who at one point owned most of the area. His idea was to create an idyllic New England type of village, with white clapboard and quaint stores, which can be clearly seen in the population center today.
