Lynbrook New York Homes for Sale

Named Lynbrook as an anagram for Brooklyn, the village was once named after one of Long Island's most distinguished families, the Pearsalls. The village began to mature around the turn of the century, adding the infrastructure needed for rapid development in the early 1900s. By 1929, Lynbrook had already grown to it current size. The increase in population brought with it convenient services and local shops. Through the decades, the village added a public library, a village swimming pool and aquatic activities, a well-equipped high school, and cultural attractions including several theatres and the Bates Opera House. Today's multicultural population enjoys a pleasant suburban community with good schools and active social and civic organizations that add to the quality of life. One of the popular European-style restaurants even draws patrons from neighboring towns.
