2. Lloyd Harbor mansion on the market for $2.49 million. Take a look at this beautiful mansion located at 49 Harbor Hill Drive in Lloyd Harbor. The 7,500 square foot home has 6.5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and an at-home gym. The home was built back in 1910 and has two acres of property. (Long Island Press)
3. Music therapy helping Huntington Hospital deal with COVID-19 stress. The last two years have been especially hard on health care workers, and Huntington Hospital employees have been coping with their stress via music therapy. Hospital employees head to a conference room where they listen to virtual music therapy from therapist Gina Marchese. The therapy has also helped isolated patients, said patient logistics director William Folk. “Patients are so isolated; some have been here over a month,” but through therapy, they were able to make more contact. The program has also expanded to the behavior health unit. We thank frontline workers for all their sacrifices these past two years here at Patch. (Huntington Now)
