William Floyd House

William Floyd House (auch: Nicholl Floyd House, Old Mastic House) war das Heim von William Floyd, einem Unterzeichner der Unabhängigkeitserklärung der Vereinigten Staaten, in Mastic Beach, New York. Er lebte dort von 1734 bis 1803. Im Unterschied dazu ist das General William Floyd House sein späteres Heim in Westernville. Es ist ebenfalls in das National Register of Historic Places als National Historic Landmark aufgenommen. Es heißt, dass die zwei Häuser von William Floyd die einzigen verbliebenen Häuser von Unterzeichnern der Unabhängigkeitserklärung im Staat New York sind. Das Mastic Home gilt als “reputed to be the best preserved and oldest manor house” (deutsch: „das am besten erhaltene und älteste Gutshaus“) auf Long Island. Architektur Das zweigeschossige Haus verfügt über einen kleinen, pfeilergestützten Portikus an der Südfront und wird im Wesentlichen durch zwei große Kamine in drei Teile gegliedert. Es hat zwei Anbauten, einen auf der Nordseite und einen zweiten, der selbst noch einmal rechtwinklig erweitert ist, nach Osten. Es steht etwa 470 m (0,29 mi) südlich der Washington Avenue und der Wavecrest Drive im großzügigen Anwesen Mastic Beach. Das Haus wurde von Nicholl Floyd, dem Vater von William Floyd, errichtet und unmittelbar an Williams Sohn, den jüngeren Nicholl Floyd, vererbt. Viele prominente Besucher waren in dem Haus zu Gast, unter anderem der Marquis de Lafayette. Das Haus gehört heute dem National Park Service als Teil der Fire Island National Seashore, obwohl es selbst nicht auf Fire Island steht. Weblinks National Register Information System.

William Floyd House

William Floyd House, also known as Nicoll Floyd House and Old Mastic House, was a home of Founding Father William Floyd, a signer of the United States Declaration of Independence, in Mastic Beach, New York. It was his home from 1734 until 1803. This home is distinct from Gen.

William Sidney Mount House

The William Sidney Mount House is a historic house at 1556 Stony Brook Road in Stony Brook, New York. Built in 1725 and enlarged in 1810, it was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965 as the lifelong home of artist William Sidney Mount (1807–1868). The house is now owned by the Long Island Museum and is occasionally opened for tours. Description and history The William Sidney Mount House is located west of the campus of Stony Brook University, at the northeast corner of North Country Road (New York State Route 25A) and Stony Brook Road. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof and shingled exterior. Its main facade is a broad seven bays in width, with two entrances and windows placed somewhat irregularly. One brick chimney pierces the roof behind the main entrance, and a second stands against the far right facade. The main entrance is sheltered by a shed-roof porch and has a four-light transom window. Single-story ells extend to the rear (north) of the main structure. The interior of the house has more than twenty rooms. The most notable of these are its original kitchen, which has been restored, and the attic level, which housed the studio of American genre painter William Sidney Mount. The oldest portion of the house is the left half of the main block, which was built in 1725 by Eleazer Hawkins, the grandfather of William Sidney Mount. Hawkins built it as an "ordinary" or tavern, whose kitchen is now preserved. About 1810 the house was enlarged, by either attaching an existing structure or building a new addition to the right side. The house was sold out of the Mount family in 1918. William Sidney Mount was born in this house, and occupied it for most of his productive life. His work was widely popular for its depictions of country life, and he was one of the first American artists to receive significant notice abroad.

The church was originally located on Queens Boulevard and moved to its current location in 1910. The current building was built in 1914. It is part of the Reformed Church in America (RCA) denomination. It is the oldest Taiwanese church established in North America. History The church was historically Dutch-speaking and remained a mainly white congregation until a large wave of Taiwanese immigrants came in the community in the 1960s. It became mostly Taiwanese in the late 1960s and became the first mainly Taiwanese congregation in North America in 1969. Preaching continued in both English and Taiwanese. Taiwanese activism Winfield was a hotbed for Taiwanese independence activism outside of Taiwan for many decades. Pastors and worshipers frequently engaged in Taiwan rallies and causes.
