Manhasset

Manhasset has a strong sense of community and a walkable downtown. Its LIRR commute?aboard the efficient Port Washington Line?is one of the shortest on Long Island, making it a top choice for people who work in Manhattan. In addition to mom-and-pop shops, restaurants, and a movie theater on Plandome Road, as well as chain stores along Northern Boulevard, the community is home to the Americana Manhasset, a luxury, open-air shopping center with 60 shops and high-caliber restaurants. The bucolic Whitney Pond Park has walking paths with foot bridges, an outdoor pool, and tennis and basketball courts. Manhasset is also home to the acclaimed North Shore University Hospital.
