'''Roslyn Estates''' is a [[Village (New York)|village]] in the [[North Hempstead, New York|Town of North Hempstead]] in [[Nassau County, New York|Nassau County]], on the [[North Shore (Long Island)|North Shore]] of [[Long Island]], in [[New York (state)|New York]], United States. It is considered part of the Greater Roslyn area, which is anchored by the [[Roslyn, New York|Incorporated Village of Roslyn]]. The population was 1,318 at the time of the 2020 census.

== History ==

=== Before the village (pre-colonization – 1931) ===
The area where Roslyn Estates is located was originally inhabited by the [[Matinecock (tribe)|Matinecock]] [[Native Americans in the United States|Native Americans]].<ref name=":5" /> European colonists started to settle in the area in the 17th century – specifically settlers of [[Dutch people|Dutch]] and [[English people|English]] heritage. From that point until the early 20th century, much of what is now the Village of Roslyn Estates consisted of farmland and estates.<ref name=":5" />

Around 1908, the land was purchased by developer [[Dean Alvord]], who also developed [[Prospect Park South]] in [[Brooklyn]] and [[Belle Terre, New York|Belle Terre]] in [[Port Jefferson, New York|Port Jefferson]].<ref name=":5">{{Cite book|last=Mackay|first=Robert B.|title=Gardens of Eden: Long Island's Early Twentieth-Century Planned Communities|publisher=[[W.

In 1911, the community's civic association, known as the Association of Roslyn Estates, was formed.<ref name=":5" /><ref name=":14" /><ref name=":24">{{Cite web |title=The Association of Roslyn Estates |url=https://www.villageofroslynestates.com/index.asp?SEC=E61E4D9B-419D-4365-A6A6-710EA27E8486&Type=B_BASIC |access-date=2021-05-08 |website=www.villageofroslynestates.com |language=en}}</ref> As of 2024, it is the oldest active civic association in Nassau County.<ref name=":24" />

=== Village of Roslyn Estates (1931 – present) ===
In 1931, residents decided to try incorporating Roslyn Estates as a village, due to the fact that the community's original [[deed restriction]]s were set to expire around that time.<ref name=":81" /> Their efforts to incorporate were successful, and the Village of Roslyn Estates was incorporated on June 8, 1931.<ref name=":81" />

In the mid-1950s, a {{Convert|27|acre|ha|adj=on}} housing development, known as Homes in Roslyn Estates, was constructed in the village, and sponsored by builders Edward Fineberg and Arthur Bandes and consisting of 60 [[Ranch home|ranch]] and [[Split-level home|split-level]] homes designed by architect Stanley J. Shaftel.<ref name=":42">{{Cite news |date=October 10, 1954 |title=Sixty Houses Priced a $35,000 Are Planned in Roslyn Estates |work=[[The New York Times]] |pages=R1 |via=[[ProQuest]]}}</ref>

In 1972, Roslyn Estates Village Hall was built.<ref name=":21">{{Cite web |title=Roslyn Estates Village Hall {{!}} Profiles {{!}} Roslyn Landmark Society |url=https://www.roslynlandmarks.org/profiles/roslyn-estates-village-hall |access-date=October 19, 2021 |website=www.roslynlandmarks.org}}</ref> It was designed by John A. Grammas on land given to the village by the firm of Saul Sokolov, Inc., which had developed that section of Roslyn Estates several years prior.<ref name=":21" />

In 1974, Mayor Robert D. Zucker attempted to have the boundaries of the [[Manhasset Park District]] redrawn to include the village after the district added an additional 260 parking spaces to the commuter parking fields at the [[Manhasset station|Manhasset]] [[Long Island Rail Road]] station.<ref name=":3">{{Cite news|last=Smith|first=Jim|date=October 1, 1974|title=Still Some Room On Parking Debate|page=17|work=[[Newsday]]|via=[[ProQuest]]}}</ref><ref name=":4">{{Cite news|date=December 4, 1974|title=Roslyn Estates Gets No Parking|page=29|work=[[Newsday]]|via=[[ProQuest]]}}</ref> Zucker stated that many Roslyn Estates residents preferred the Manhasset station over the closer [[Roslyn station (LIRR)|Roslyn station]] due to the fact that service to/from [[Pennsylvania Station (New York City)|Pennsylvania Station]] on the [[Port Washington Branch]] is direct, whereas a change at [[Jamaica station|Jamaica]] is required on the [[Oyster Bay Branch]].<ref name=":3" /> By having the district boundaries redrawn to include the village, Roslyn Estates residents would have the ability to be guaranteed a parking space at the Manhasset station for commuting to/from [[Manhattan]].<ref name=":3" /> Officials from both the Town of North Hempstead and the Manhasset Park District – as well as Manhasset residents – lamented the idea, given that Roslyn Estates is not part of the [[Manhasset, New York|Greater Manhasset]] area, and felt that the needs of Greater Manhasset should be paramount for the Manhasset Park District.<ref name=":3" /><ref name=":4" /> The proposal was ultimately denied.<ref name=":4" />

Roslyn Estates celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1981.<ref name=":20">{{Cite news|last=Philips|first=Evelyn|date=October 4, 1981|title=50TH ANNIVERSARY FOR 4 VILLAGES|language=en-US|work=The New York Times|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1981/10/04/nyregion/50th-anniversary-for-4-villages.html|access-date=October 11, 2021|issn=0362-4331}}</ref>

=== Etymology ===
The name of Roslyn Estates was taken directly from the name which was used by the community's original development group, Roslyn Estates, Incorporated.<ref name=":81" /> The "Roslyn" part of its name is shared with Roslyn, [[Roslyn Harbor, New York|Roslyn Harbor]], and [[Roslyn Heights, New York|Roslyn Heights]], and ultimately can be traced back to when the name "Roslyn" was chosen for that village, which was chosen because the geography in Roslyn reminded officials of the geography of [[Roslin, Midlothian|Roslin, Scotland]].<ref name=":81" />

According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the village has a total area of {{convert|0.4|sqmi|km2}}, all land.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Roslyn Estates Village, New York Profile|url=https://data.census.gov/cedsci/profile?g=1600000US3663792|access-date=June 29, 2021|website=data.census.gov}}</ref>
