Cedarmere was the home of
William Cullen Bryant, a poet and publisher of the New York Evening Post. He converted an
older 18th Century farmhouse in
Roslyn Harbor, Long Island into his home around 1787.
Frederick Law Olmsted did the landscaping. Today the house is owned by
Nassau County and run as a museum and preserve. Click

Cedarmere on google earth.
This must have been some sort of mill in its time. There is
old machinery attached to the side, rusted beyond recognition.
The view from the lawn, with the gardens in the foreground and
Hempstead Harbor in the background.
