| Only
80 miles from midtown Manhattan, Southold Town has so far
escaped the worst consequences of sprawling overdevelopment. Riverhead
Town and points farther West have not. Mounting population
pressure and economic forces of the real estate and construction
industries
are increasingly
bearing down on Southold Town,
threatening both our heritage and quality
of life, now and in the future. |

| It is happening,
farms are turning into suburbs and cities! |
