In 1929 one of New York City's Newspapers,
The Daily Mirror, offered subscribers the opportunity to buy a 20x100
foot parcel of land in an undeveloped area of land between Rocky Point
and Miller Place bordered on the north by a mile and
half of beautiful, pristine beach. Buyers had to agree
to take year's subscription to The Mirror and could then buy the land
for $89.75 per lot - $12.50
down and $3.50 a month until it was paid off. And so our hamlet began. 
Today, Sound Beach has grown to a community which, as
of 2007, had a population of 6,764.
