The following map of the Brookhaven Hamlet (Fire Place) Historic
District was taken from the Town Zoning Map, Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County,
New York (Revision Date August 21, 2000). Copies were obtained from the
Town Hall on 2 Dec 2002.
However, there may be a discrepancy between this Zoning Map and
the official boundaries established by the Town Board. The Town's
computerized GIS map shows a somewhat different and expanded western border,
which includes, among other things, properties on both sides of South Country
Rd. between the railroad tracks and Beaverdam Rd. Staff at the Town Hall
speculated that the GIS map may be more accurate, perhaps translated directly
from the Town Board's written resolution. I plan to investigate further.
In addition to the Historic District boundaries, there is a 500
ft. buffer space around the Historic District which is subject to somewhat less
restrictive requirements.
I was told by the staff at the Town Hall that the Brookhaven
Hamlet Historic District is the largest within the Town of Brookhaven.
