A brochure advertising '
Happy House', the
John William Mackay III estate designed by
John Cross of
Cross & Cross in 1929 in
Roslyn. The property sat across Glen Cove Road from his father's estate '
Harbor Hill'. J.W. married
Josephine Gwendolyn Rose (daughter of
George Rose of '
Overland House' in
Old Westbury) in 1929 and it is very possible this house was a wedding present. In 1957 J.W. purchased '
Matinecock Farm' in
Lattingtown. Click
