Home to Adelphia University, Garden City Village provides a welcoming, attractive setting for bustling retail centers and lovely residential neighborhoods. Graceful, formal homes along tree-shaded lanes combine with some of the most respected retailers in the world along the Franklin Avenue corridor. Service establishments are equally well developed for a truly convenient lifestyle, and dining opportunities are among the finest on Long Island. Recreational amenities within the community include a public swimming pool, a senior recreation center, tennis programs, the Garden City Athletic Association, a soccer organization, and lush parks brimming over with sports facilities. Today's more modern but less ostentatious version of yesterday's glorious Garden City Hotel is still considered to be the crown jewel of Long Island.
