General

The "Old Long Island" website, http://www.oldlongisland.com/2009/12/v-everett-macy-residence.html identifies this as the home of V. Everett (sic) Macy a banker and boat racer. However, the well-known Valentine Everit Macy was a lifelong resident of Westchester County, so it is not clear how this attribution of ownership was made. Named "Twin Gables," the house appears to have been sold to metallurgist Benjamin Lissberger, whose widow sold it in 1941 to Louis Kaplan. The house has since been demolished.
