The Historical Society's 2010 Holiday Historic House Tour includes five private homes that have been built over the more than 350 years since Huntington was first settled.
This year's tour includes a house built by the descendants of one of the earliest families to settle in Huntington, the Fleet family, in the area now known as Fleet's Cove. Besides this early settlement home, this year will have houses that represent different eras of home building. One home with a spectacular water view, built by the J. T. Robb family, will be included in the tour, as well as a mid-19th century house owned by several generations of sea captains in Cold Spring Harbor.
Tour headquarters will be in the society's Conklin House, on the corner of New York Avenue and High Street, which will be open for tours. Refreshments will be served in the historic barn on the property.
