Garden City

Nestled under the tranquil tree-lined streets, Garden City is an elegant and picturesque suburban community boasting multi million-dollar homes. The development of Garden City was arranged by merchant millionaire Alexander Turney Stewarts in 1869. One of America’s earliest planned villages, Garden City was originally developed with wide avenues, hundreds of trees and shrubs, sixty well-built homes on spacious lots, a handsome hotel on a 30-acre park – all reached via its own railroad line, A.T. Stewart’s Central Railroad of Long Island.
