Tucked away within the rolling hills of Long Island's Gold Coast, on the banks of Hempstead Harbor, Roslyn is a charming small village with lots to offer. Named "Roslyn" in 1844 because of its striking resemblance to the landscape of Roslin, Scotland, the village has kept its allure alive with the care of its many historic structures and inviting parks, attracting residents and visitors for generations.
Only 23 miles away from New York, Roslyn has felt the influence of the city with its celebration of sophisticated cuisine, eclectic shops, and a buzzing nightlife. A village lined with 19th-century homes, contemporary apartments, sparkling ponds, and enriched with an impressive local history and expanding culture, Roslyn has a little something for everyone.
