The '''Incorporated Village of Bayville''' is located on the [[Long Island Sound]], facing [[Greenwich, Connecticut]].

== History ==
Bayville incorporated as a village in 1919, during the "incorporated village movement," which allowed many larger estate owners on Long Island to establish political and security control over their domains.<ref name=":81">{{Cite book|last=Winsche|first=Richard|title=The History of Nassau County Community Place-Names|date=October 1, 1999|publisher=Empire State Books|isbn=978-1557871541|location=[[Interlaken, New York]]|pages=}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{cite web|title=Bayville Time Line|url=http://bayvilleny.gov/about/history.php|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110517214116/http://bayvilleny.gov/about/history.php|archive-date=May 17, 2011|access-date=February 15, 2010}}</ref>

Like many other Long Island communities, Bayville was first occupied by the [[Matinecock (tribe)|Matinecock Indians]] and was known as Oak Neck and Pine Island. In 1658, Oyster Bay resident Daniel Whitehead purchased the land from the tribes. By 1745, the land was split among 23 men, who mainly grew asparagus. In 1859, Oak Neck was renamed Bayville and the first Methodist church was constructed west of what is now Merritt Lane. Multiple estates were built in the surrounding areas, and in 1898 a drawbridge was built, connecting Bayville and [[Mill Neck, New York|Mill Neck]].<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web |date=2019 |title=Bayville, Our Home 2019 |url=https://bayvilleny.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Bayville-Our-Home-2019.pdf |website=bayvilleny.gov}}</ref>

In 1909, the Bayville Casino opened for business, attracting beachgoers, and in 1919, Winslow S. Pierce, who owned the Dunstable Estate in town, was elected the first mayor of the Village of Bayville. The Dunstable Estate was sold to [[Harrison Williams (entrepreneur)|Harrison Williams]] and renamed "Oak Point".<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.oldlongisland.com/2011/11/dunstable.html | title='Dunstable' }}</ref> When the Arlington Hotel, Bayville Casino, and Ritzmore Estate burned to the ground, it prompted the creation of the Bayville Fire Department. Bayville was put on the front page of many newspapers in 1927 when the rum rummer ''William T. Bell'' ran ashore at the Oak Point estate. Things were a little slow for a while, but after [[World War II]], the community began to boom. A new church, post office, and school were built in the span of three years, and from 1950 to 1960, the population doubled.

The [[Bayville Bridge]] – one of two entrances into the village – opened in 1938 and is a major landmark and tourist attraction; it is the fourth bridge at that location.<ref>{{Cite web|title=New York OPD Geographic Information Gateway|url=http://opdgig.dos.ny.gov/#/map|access-date=September 10, 2021|website=opdgig.dos.ny.gov}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Major repairs coming to Bayville Bridge this winter|url=https://www.liherald.com/stories/major-repairs-coming-to-bayville-bridge-this-winter,117875|access-date=September 10, 2021|website=Herald Community Newspapers|date=September 6, 2019 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|last=Fischler|first=Marcelle S.|date=July 1, 2011|title=Never Too Far From the Beach|language=en-US|work=The New York Times|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/03/realestate/never-too-far-from-the-beach-living-inbayville.html|access-date=September 10, 2021|issn=0362-4331}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=September 2, 2000|first=Rhoda|last=Amon|title=Time Machine / Then & Now / Bridging the Past and the Present in Bayville|url=https://www.newsday.com/long-island/time-machine-then-now-bridging-the-past-and-the-present-in-bayville-1.425067|access-date=September 10, 2021|website=Newsday|language=en}}</ref>
