Springs General Store Gets a Boost

The Springs General Store achieved a victory at the East Hampton Town Zoning Board of Appeals last week, being granted its request for a natural resources special permit. It was needed because parking, fencing, and decking would be installed within 150 feet of wetlands. Don’t expect them to start churning out coffee and egg sandwiches just yet, however. The store still needs site plan approval from the town’s planning and architectural review boards.

“This has been a longtime problem on the South Fork,” Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele Jr. said in reference to a universal truth about Long Island: that gas prices generally get higher the farther east you go.

Hampton Jitney Rides Into Its Second Half-Century

The earliest iteration of the Hampton Jitney began traversing the roads of the South Fork 50 years ago, on the heels of the first oil shock, which sent gas prices soaring and had people looking for alternatives to their cars. Half a century later, it’s hard to imagine the South Fork without the Hampton Jitney, especially if you’re a commuter or part-time resident.

Real Estate Market Here Likely Buffered From Ruling

Real estate transactions involving the Multiple Listing Service account for nearly 90 percent of all deals in most regions of the United States — but not on Long Island's South Fork.
