Silver Path Estates Subdivision Application Incorporated Village of Muttontown Draft EIS APPENDIX G-2 OPRHP HISTORIC BUILDINGS REVIEW & ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS
ANDREW M. CUOMO ROSE HARVEY Governor Commissioner September 03, 2015 Mr. Scott Robin Nelson, Pope & Voorhis 572 Walt Whitman Road Melville, NY 11747 Re: DEC Easton, LLC Subdivision 1868 Muttontown Road, Muttontown, NY 15PR01279 Dear Mr. Robin: Thank you for requesting the comments of the Division for Historic Preservation of the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP). We have reviewed the provided documents in accordance with the New York State Historic Preservation Act of 1980 (Section 14.09 of the New York Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Law). These comments are those of the Division for Historic Preservation and relate only to Historic/Cultural resources. They do not include potential environmental impacts to New York State Parkland that may be involved in or near your project. Such impacts must be considered as part of the environmental review of the project pursuant to the State Environmental Quality Review Act (New York Environmental Conservation Law Article 8) and its implementing regulations (6 NYCRR Part 617). We have reviewed the proposed Easton Subdivision. We note that the Evelyn Marshall Field Suarez Estate (Easton) is eligible for listing on the State and National Registers of Historic Places. A Resource Evaluation is attached for your use. It is important to note that the entire estate is eligible despite the loss of the original main house. The remaining property retains an extraordinary array of buildings of high architectural integrity. Additionally, the carefully designed landscape including stone gutters is highly significant. The overall landscape and array of buildings reflect the lifestyle of an early-20th century Long Island country estate. The submitted proposed project includes the demolition of all buildings (and landscape) on the site. Demolition of historic buildings and landscapes is, by definition, an Adverse Impact to historic resources. This is a finding that triggers an exploration of all prudent and feasible alternatives that might avoid or minimize the adverse project impacts. If no alternatives are identified to alleviate the adverse impacts, we would enter into a formal Letter of Resolution (LOR) which would identify proper mitigation measures that may minimize harm and be incorporated into the work. At this point, we must move forward with a through exploration of alternatives. We would appreciate the requested information be provided via our Cultural Resource Information Division for Historic Preservation P.O.

Silver Path Estates Subdivision 1868 Muttontown Road Muttontown, NY Alternatives Analysis 15PR01279 July 28, 2016 A. INTRODUCTION Beijing Silver Path Investment (U.S.) LLC (the “applicant”) proposes to redevelop the former Evelyn Marshall Field Suarez Estate, known as Easton, in the Village of Muttontown, Nassau County, NY. As part of the proposed project, the applicant is seeking a New York State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). As determined by the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) in a letter of September 3, 2015, the Easton Estate is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. As the project proposed to demolish the existing estate buildings on the project site and subdivide the property for the construction of new residences, OPRHP has determined that the proposed project would have an Adverse Impact pursuant to Section 14.09 of the New York State Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Law, and requested that all prudent and feasible alternatives be explored to avoid or minimize the Adverse Impact. This document provides additional information regarding the history of the estate, conditions of the buildings, and alterations that have occurred to the estate that affect both its integrity and feasibility of incorporation of the built and landscape features of the site. The applicant has evaluated the potential for retaining and reusing the buildings on the former Easton estate as part of the subdivision proposed on the site. This analysis, presented below in greater detail, concludes that it is only feasible to retain one of the estate buildings as part of the proposed subdivision. B. HISTORY OF THE SITE AND SIGNIFICANCE CONSIDERATIONS The 98.8 acre Easton Estate is located on the north side of Muttontown Road at 1871 Muttontown Road in the Village of Muttontown, Nassau County, NY (see Figures 1a – 1c). It is composed of nine estate buildings designed by Chicago architect David Adler with interiors by his sister Frances Elkins for Evelyn Marshal Field, and with the estate grounds designed by Innocenti and Webel. Although the main house was demolished in 1953 and replaced by a new structure in 1989, OPRHP maintains in its Resource Evaluation for the Easton Estate (September 1, 2015) that the Easton Estate meets National Register criterion C. Though not stated in the Resource Evaluation, a playhouse that was original to the design of the estate was removed sometime shortly after the second owner of the property, Bruce Hall, acquired the property in 1951. Some alterations to the estate buildings are cited in the Resource Evaluation. However, additional alterations that occurred in the 1950s through the early part of the 21st century to upgrade or convert buildings to residential use have impacted the original designs of those buildings. Modifications have also been made to the original landscape design. A description of the estate features, including buildings and landscape, physical condition and alterations, is provided below. 1
1. THE BUILDINGS: HISTORY AND ALTERATIONS1 THE “CONSERVATORY” The “conservatory” is an unfinished shell of a building constructed in 1989 atop the ground floor of the original mansion that was demolished in 1953 (see Figure 2). As indicated in the Resource Evaluation and as noted by the property manager, it is likely the term “conservatory” was applied so as to avoid taxes on a “residence.” This structure was built above the ground floor of the original mansion, which was occupied as a functional part of the estate. The ground floor formerly served as the service portion of the main house, with accommodations for servants, a servants hall and sitting room, and other accessory uses including a store room, the kitchen, as well as the boiler room. Access to the first floor of the house was via a centrally located staircase towards the west end of the building (see Figure 3). The ground floor has been fully gutted, with no partition walls or fixtures remaining. The staircase has also been removed. New concrete columns have been built to support the unfinished floor of the “conservatory (see Figure 4). The building was damaged during Hurricane Sandy (2012). The structure above the ground floor is an open, unbuilt space built of cinderblocks (see Figure 5, photo 5). The floor is unfinished with moss and mold growing. The roof is in poor condition, due to Hurricane Sandy, and leaks. Original features of the main house include the curved stairs and landing on the exterior north (formerly primary) façade, the stone patio with the bases of the former columns that supported the house’s original grand pediment on the south elevation and the enclosed sun porch on the east façade of the conservatory structure (see Figure 2 and Figure 5, photo 6). A spiral staircase that led from an opening on the north façade of the enclosed porch to the forecourt has been removed. The original mansion served as the anchor of the estate, to which the Winter (east) Cottage and Laundry (west) Cottage were connected via curved arcaded walkways. The house was of brick with a mansard roof with dormers, and a large Dorico portico was located on the south façade (see Figures 6-8). The present “conservatory,” though of brick as was the main house, is of a different design. The interior of the main house was richly appointed and designed, with an arcaded front hall that contained a floor of black teakwood inlaid with bands of steel; stone fireplaces; tiled and parquet floors, molded plaster moldings; rich wall treatments including 18th century Chinese wallpaper and decorative plaster relief motifs (including palm trees); and carved wood paneling. The removal of the main house left the Winter and Laundry Cottages as separate buildings. Following the demolition of the main house, the west façade of the ground floor of the main house was altered through the removal of three original windows and insertion of a vehicular entrance. Removal of the main house and replacement with a 1989 structure has substantially affected the design intent of the original main house and its dependencies (Winter and Laundry Cottages) and has impacted the integrity of the original estate design. 11 Information regarding the history of the estate was provided by the property manager, through a site visit, and review of historic materials at the estate. 2
WINTER COTTAGE The Winter Cottage, the east dependency, served as a winter cottage or guest cottage for the Marshall Suarez family, and contains approximately 2,964 square feet of living space (see Figure 9, photo 7). It was to be used at times when the main house was closed, e.g. on weekends. The cottage has an exterior sun dial on its south façade (see Figure 9, photo 8). An enclosed garden extending south from the winter cottage has an ornamental pool (see Figure 10, photo 9). As originally designed and built, the cottage was organized on the first floor with a servant’s bedroom and sitting room on the east side of the cottage and east of a secondary (servants) staircase, with a kitchen and pantry, bathroom, library and living room/dining room west of the stairs (see Figure 11). A hallway at the west end of the cottage, which contains a whimsical mural depicting the main house of the estate (described as canvas above dado in a property sale brochure in 19511 and as American Primitive mural in a late 1930s House and Garden article on the property) and a tiled floor, provided access from the primary entrance on the west (forecourt) façade of the Winter Cottage (see Figure 12, photo 11).The second floor was organized with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a servant’s bedroom and bathroom. The rooms are small with slanted ceilings that follow the slope of the gable roof (see Figure 10, photo 10). The main staircase is located at the west end of the house off the hallway (see Figure 12, photo 12). While the upstairs plan appears largely unchanged including some built-in dressing tables and desks beneath the dormer windows, the first floor was modified in the 1950s as follows: The servant’s bedroom and sitting room—two separate rooms and a closet—have been removed with a modern kitchen constructed in these former spaces (see Figure 13, photo 13). The kitchen has modern wood flooring, and the window frames have been modified. The original kitchen and pantry were removed and this space altered for use as a public room. In this room, a portion of parquet flooring salvaged from the main house prior to its demolition was installed (see Figure 13, photo 14). A large bowed window was installed in the location of a window that was originally in the pantry (now a public room-possibly a dining room), along with the parquet flooring described above (see Figure 13, photo 14). The original pantry had built in shelves and cabinets. In addition, other alterations include: One of the guest bedrooms on the second floor of the cottage was described and pictured in the 1930s House and Garden article as having walls hung with canvas that had stenciling of vegetative motifs in shades of green. This wall treatment is no longer extant. The roof was originally of slate tiles; the roof has been replaced with cedar shingles. Lamps affixed to the primary (west) façade of the Winter Cottage on either side of the main entrance do not appear in historic photographs, and are later additions. 1 Circa 1951 Previews Listing (No. 41532) for sale of Easton Estate 3
Historical photographs, including from the 1930s House and Garden article and a June 19, 1979 Building Structure Inventory Form, show that the Winter Cottage originally had two dark holly bushes on either side of the main (west) façade entrance. These have been removed. Younger holly bushes are presently located at the ends of the building along this façade; these replaced original evergreen trees in these locations (see Figure 6 and Figure 9, photo 7). LAUNDRY COTTAGE The east façade of the Laundry Cottage is of a similar design as the west façade of the Winter Cottage, and faces the Winter Cottage across the grassy forecourt. This cottage was designed to house laundry facilities and additional servant’s accommodations, and contains approximately 2,612 square feet of living space. According to a 1951 property sale brochure, the first floor contained a large laundry with four tubs and gas dryers, as well as three servant’s bedrooms and a bath. The second floor contained four servant’s bedrooms and a shower. The second floor rooms, like those in the Winter Cottage are small with sloped ceilings. During the late 1960s, this cottage was converted to a residence with three bedrooms and two baths. Alterations undertaken to convert the building include: Removal of partition walls on the first floor to create a large open plan living/dining room and a kitchen (see Figure 14, photo 16) Installation of a portion of parquet flooring salvaged from the main house prior to its demolition in the area of the living/dining room (see Figure 14, photo 16). Possible construction of the flight of stairs from the first floor to the landing where there is a secondary entrance. The second floor was accessed from this secondary entrance. Reportedly this was to segregate the male and female servants (reportedly men upstairs and women downstairs). Creation of an additional large bathroom on the second floor in what used to be a servant’s bedroom. This bathroom has a salvaged bathroom vanity from the main house master bath and a light fixture above it also salvaged from the main house (see Figure 15, photo 17). The master upstairs bedroom has a steel and silvered glass fireplace surround salvaged from the dining room of the main house. It appears that the central green section of the fireplace surround is a replacement material as historic photographs depict the central section as one piece of steel and silvered glass (see Figure 15, photo 18). POOL HOUSE, POOL AND TENNIS COURT The Pool House, pool, and tennis court were designed as part of the “Sports Group” of the estate southwest of the main house (see Figure 16). This included the pool house flanked to the northeast by the pool and to the southwest by a tennis court. A number of paths were depicted around the tennis court, these appear to have become overgrown. 4
The Pool House is a one-story building with an 847 sf footprint with a basement (for pool equipment) that has been modified from its original design (see Figure 17). This building was originally designed with a central open pavilion with enclosed men’s and women’s changing rooms on either side (see Figure 16). The central pavilion was subsequently enclosed with wood siding, with the windows and doors in this section of the building on the east and west elevations reportedly salvaged from the main house prior to its demolition (see Figure 17). It is unclear if this alteration was made prior to or as part of the conversion of the building as an office for the current owner (Bruce Hall) in the 1960s. The men’s changing rooms area was modified as part of the conversion to a private office space to include a desk and shelving (see Figure 18). The women’s dressing rooms remain largely intact with a narrow corridor from which small changing rooms are accessed (see Figure 18). The building is in poor condition due to deferred maintenance. The building is not habitable as a permanent residence. It is very small, has no formal heat or insulation, and includes one large central large space and very small partitioned areas (office rooms, changing rooms) that would have to be substantially modified. The pool is still extant with the diving board removed, and currently enclosed by a modern chain- link fence. The tennis court retains most of its chain-link surround fencing but has otherwise been overtaken by vegetation (see Figure 17). PLAY HOUSE (DEMOLISHED) The playhouse was located south of the pool and is shown as a one-story frame building with a porch fronting along the principal façade in a 1951 property sale brochure for the property (see Figures 16 and 19). The playhouse was surrounded by a decorative fence with an arched arbor. The playhouse was accessed by a path that led from the pool via a path. This structure has been demolished, and was reportedly taken down by the second property owner, Bruce Hall, shortly after acquisition of the property. GARAGE/CHAUFFER APARTMENT A garage designed with second floor living accommodations is located directly west of the main house and oriented north-south. The garage has a footprint of 2,069 sf. It is clad in shingles with a central open bay flanked by enclosed garage bays, and capped by a cupola with a clock (see Figure 20). As noted in the Resource Evaluation, the garages doors on the west elevation appear to be modern replacements. The garage was designed with the north side of the building for use by the mechanic (see Figure 21, photo 27). This includes the first floor space with a mechanics pit, with the second floor above on this side of the building designed to contain a bedroom and bathroom for the mechanic. The first floor on the south side of the building was used to garage vehicles, with the second floor above containing a two bedroom apartment for the chauffer and family. In a circa 1951 property sale brochure for the property, the second floor of the garage was described as having six rooms and a bath. The first floor on the south side of the building and the upstairs were converted to a residence and used by Bruce Hall’s son and his family (see Figure 21, photo 28). The second floor of the structure combined the mechanics and chauffer living spaces into one three bedroom 2 ½ bath 5
rental. According to the property manager, this space has been fully renovated and upgraded. It is currently occupied as a rental. GREENHOUSE COTTAGE The Greenhouse Cottage is located towards the south end of the estate property towards Muttontown Road (see Figures 22 and 23). Together with a garage built in 1980 and adjoining pump house (described below), this group of buildings has an approximately 4,146 sf footprint. The original greenhouse was designed with a central brick section with a gabled roof with flanking greenhouse sections that had glazed roofs and walls set on low brick walls (see Figure 24). The windows in the central brick section included pointed arched as are the doorways to the former greenhouse sections on the south façade of the building. This building was substantially altered in 1970 when it was converted to a residence. It currently contains two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and with a kitchen, living room, and dining room. Alterations to convert the building to a residence have included: Installation of roofing (cedar shingles) on the full roof of the west greenhouse section and most of the east greenhouse section. Sealing of the west greenhouse walls with siding and installation of new doors and windows; the west façade retains a portion of the greenhouse wall as a large window. Sealing of much of the east greenhouse walls with siding and installation of new doors and windows; a section at the east end of the greenhouse has been retained as a sunroom space. Construction of a two-bay brick garage circa 1980 at the west end of the greenhouse building, abutting the former pump house/garage structure (described below) to the north (see Figure 22, photo 29 and Figure 26, Photos 33-35). Conversion of the east greenhouse into a kitchen. Conversion of the central brick section into a living room and dining room. The living room contains a stone fireplace mantle salvaged from the library of the main house prior to demolition. The dining room includes a portion of parquet flooring salvaged from the main house prior to demolition. The west greenhouse has been converted for use as two bedrooms and two baths; a corridor extends along the south side of this section of the building. The master bedroom is located at the west end of the building with the large greenhouse window. A large bowed window is on the north façade of the central brick section (see Figure 23, photo 32). Similar in appearance to the bowed window in the location of the former pantry at the Winter Cottage, it is assumed that like the window at the Winter Cottage, this window is not original and is a later addition dating to the conversion of the buildings as rentals. It is likely another doorway, matching the one on the south façade, was in this location. 6
In addition, utility plans from the 1930s depict a walkway extending from what was likely a door (now the bowed window) on the north façade of the building leading to the remains of a formal flower garden (see Figure 25). The garden is depicted on utility drawings as having four sections separated by paths. The walkway leading from the greenhouse has been removed. A flagstone patio has been built adjacent to the east greenhouse to the north (see Figure 23). THE PUMP HOUSE/GARAGE The pump house/garage building is a 1 ½ story cinderblock gabled roof building (see Figure 26). The building has two round arched vehicular openings on its north façade; one of the openings retains what appear to be original wood doors that are in poor condition. There is also an entrance and two windows on this façade. A bull’s eye window divided into four lights is on the west façade of the building at the gable. A similar opening on the east façade has been sealed. The south and west facades contain two windows at ground level. The building has further been altered through its attachment with the one-story brick garage built in 1980, which obscures a portion of its south façade. CARETAKER’S (POND OR GARDENER’S) COTTAGE The Caretaker’s Cottage has a 688 sf footprint and contains approximately 1,376 square feet of living space. It is located north of the Greenhouse Cottage (see Figure 27). It is also referred to as the Pond Cottage, due to the location of a pond formerly to the east of the cottage in land that was sold by the Hall family to Nassau County for the Muttontown Preserve in 2009 (the pond has been filled in). It is a 1 ½ story brick cottage that contains a dining room, living room with a simple brick fireplace and wood mantle, and kitchen on the ground floor, with two bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor (see Figures 28 and 29) The rooms are small, with the upstairs rooms having slanted ceilings that follow the slope of the roof and dormer windows. The front porch on the west façade has been partially enclosed/screened since its original construction. This façade is clad in stucco. To the rear (east) of the cottage there is brick patio with a low stone retaining wall pierced by a set of stone steps that lead up to the land behind the patio. A site/utilities plan from the 1930s (as shown on Figure 25) depicts a pathway leading from the stone stairs at the east of the brick patio at the rear of the cottage to the formal flower garden (discussed above regarding the Greenhouse Cottage). BARN The barn, depicted on the 1930s site/utility plan of the estate as truck and tractor storage, is located west of the driveway and southwest of the pool house (see Figures 30 and 31). This 847 square foot building is a wood frame board and batten structure of 1 ½ stories. The barn retains a large opening at ground level with paired wood doors with a hayloft and pulley above on the south façade. The building has been vacant for over two decades (since 1993) and is in poor condition due to deferred maintenance and a water pipe break that occurred; windows are broken and the back wall is structurally unsound. In addition to its deteriorated condition, the building is not habitable as a permanent residence, as it has no insulation or formal heating. This structure was converted to use as a temporary residence in 1980, reportedly for use by a gardener in lieu of pay. The conversion resulted in a number of significant alterations to the building: 7
Insertion of new windows, including two double-hung windows on the east façade, and a small window as well as a much large bowed window on the west façade. There is also a double hung window on the north façade. Insertion of new doorways on the east and west facades. It appears that wood sections were added with pointed arch openings with doors inserted in these areas. The doors look of similar dimensions to pointed-arch openings located within the greenhouse cottage at the north and south ends of the original central brick section of that building, which no longer have doors. It is possible that the doors are from these locations, as the doors were perhaps not needed within the interior of the greenhouse cottage, and were moved to the barn when it was converted to a residence. The interior of the barn received new flooring, wall and ceiling surfaces (now in poor condition). A double set of interior doors set within a partition wall with shelving separate most of the residential space from the south end of the building that has the barn doors, possibly for heat retention/wintering purposes. The chimney and fireplace are not original. The structure’s original use was a barn and to house farm machinery. The Greek Revival fireplace mantel and frame for a mirror above were salvaged from the main house prior to demolition. At the time of the building’s conversion in 1980, it is surmised that the fireplace and chimney were built and the salvaged items installed in the building. 2. THE LANDSCAPE: HISTORY AND ALTERATIONS As described above, the landscape architectural firm of Innocenti & Webel designed the grounds of the estate. Two prominent spaces were associated with the original design of the estate and relating to the main house: the forecourt, or northern approach to the main house, and the garden (south) front of the main house. The forecourt was designed as a U-shaped grassy court encircled by a gravel driveway. One of its most prominent features were six large American Elms placed symmetrically on the east and west sides of the court (see Figure 32). The forecourt is bounded by a low brick wall capped by a picket fence. On the garden (south) front of the house, the landscape was designed with large linden trees, also brought to the site as mature trees, which included two large trees flanking the Doric portico (see Figure 8). As described by Gary Hilderbrand in Making a Landscape of Continuity: The Practice of Innocenti & Webel (1997) the large and mature and were acquired from older properties and nurseries, and were designed to give the 1930s era property “an authority of age, the evocation of traditions, and the appearance of maturity.”1 Paul J. Matteyunas reports in North Shore Long Island Country House: 1890-1950 (2007) that the trees were moved in the middle of the night from Amityville, requiring disconnecting telephone and electrical wires. None of the American Elm trees at the forecourt are extant and the two Linden trees, as well as possibly others, on the garden front are also no longer extant. Brick walls were designed to extend east and west from the main house, separating the south garden of the main house from the service areas at the rear of the Laundry Cottage, and to 1 Making a Landscape of Continuity: The Practice of Innocenti & Webel, Gary Hilderbrand, Princeton Architectural Press/Harvard Graduate School of Design, 1997, p. 48. 8
separate the main house south garden from the Winter Cottage garden. The west brick wall terminates at a small two-story brick structure with a hipped shingle roof (see Figure 33, photo 48). The ground floor reportedly served as a tool storage area, with the second floor used as a ping pong room. The tool room/ping pong building was substantially damaged during Superstorm Sandy when a tree fell into it from the east. The roof and east façade were heavily damaged. The east brick wall forms the southern boundary of the Winter Cottage’s garden, one of two other decorative gardens designed on the estate (see Figure 10, photo 9). The Winter Cottage garden is an enclosed garden to the south of the Winter Cottage, bounded to the east by a picket fence, to the south by the aforementioned brick wall that separates this garden from the south garden of the main house, to the west by the former main house sunroom and exterior wall of the curved arcaded passageway that connected the Winter Cottage to the main house, and to north by the Winter Cottage itself. A small quatrefoil shaped pool is centrally located in the garden. Another garden, potentially a flower garden, was located east of the Caretaker’s/Pond Cottage. This garden was divided into four sections by pathways with a centrally located decorative well (see Figure 25). Curved hedges framed the south side of the garden, north of the greenhouse, with hedges also bordering the perimeter of the garden on its other sides, including to the rear of the Caretaker’s/Pond cottage. While approximately the one-half of the southern curved hedge row appears to remain, the other portion appears to no longer be extant and overtaken by trees. The central decorative well feature is still extant, and the locations of the paths, though grown in, are discernable in aerial photography (https://www.bing.com/). The estate was also designed with a formally laid out vegetable garden divided into rectangular parcels divided by paths, which was located northwest of the greenhouse on the east side of the entrance driveway (see Figure 25). Driveways led from the main drive to the vegetable garden and stepped paths led from the greenhouse to the garden. The location of this former garden is now a flat grassy area with the access roads and the paths within its original footprint and leading to it removed (see Figure 33, photos 49 and 50). Other landscape features, including the estate driveway and stone drainage gutters, and hedges around the pool remain. Many mature trees were toppled during Superstorm Sandy, including a tree that fell on the toolshed/ping pong table building, as described above. 3. RECENT HISTORY AND SALE OF THE PROPERTY Following the death of Bruce Hall, the second owner of the property, in 1996, the Hall family sought ways to generate revenue at the property to offset the cost of maintenance and the property taxes levied on the at the time approximately 119 acre property with its nine buildings. This included renting certain buildings, selling of a portion of the property, and subdividing the property. The renovation and rental of certain of the buildings, including the Winter Cottage, Laundry Cottage, Greenhouse Cottage, Chauffer’s apartment, and the Pond Cottage, some of which had been previously utilized as rentals by Bruce Hall, commenced circa 2000. Additional renovations were made to these buildings to make them rentable, including upgrading of kitchens. A full renovation of the chauffer’s apartment was undertaken circa 2005, which included the removal and relocation of partition walls. The Chauffer’s Apartment, the only 9
building that presently produces rental income, has been rented at $3,000/month. The Greenhouse Cottage was rented at $3,200/month and the Pond Cottage was rented at $3,700/month. The Winter Cottage at some point was rented for over $4,000/month. In addition, the previous owners attempted to generate revenue by trying to subdivide the property over an approximately 10 year period, which included an initial cluster subdivision proposed in 2005 that would have allowed for two of the estate buildings to be retained, the Winter Cottage and the Laundry Cottage, with the other buildings to be demolished. At the time, the property consisted of approximately 119 acres with the subdivision proposal to create 32 lots. A residential cluster development, or open space development, allows for the grouping of residential properties on a development site in order to use the extra land as open space, recreation or agriculture. At the time and at present, the Village of Muttontown does not have a provision to allow clustering in its code. To allow for a cluster plan, the Board of Trustees of the Incorporated Village of Muttontown (“Board of Trustees”) would have had to give the Planning Board the authority to cluster a subdivision under New York State Law. However, the Board of Trustees did not grant the authority to the Planning Board to grant a cluster, and no action could be taken by the Planning Board. The cluster subdivision would have resulted in some undersize (less than three acre) lots. Zoning in 2005 and at present allows for single-family homes on a minimum of three-acre lots. In 2009 to generate income, the Hall family sold 18.3 acres on the east side of the property bordering the Muttontown Preserve to Nassau County. The sale increased the size of the Muttontown Preserve, and reduced the over 100 acre estate property to its current 98.8 acres. The property that was sold included a pond, which had given the Caretaker’s Cottage its other name, the “Pond” Cottage. In May 2010, the Board of Trustees adopted a temporary moratorium (Local Law 1 of 2010) on the consideration or approval of subdivision applications, purportedly enacted to give the Village Board time to revise and update its Comprehensive Master Plan, adopted in 1969, so as to protect and preserve the Village’s open spaces and rural character. Set to expire in 180 days (with three possible three-month extensions), the moratorium was extended in July 2011 (Low Law 2 of 2011), with a similar expiry timeline (180 days and three possible 3-month extensions). In October 2011, Easton LLC (the Hall family-held limited liability company that owned the Easton property) brought action to lift the moratorium, which was preventing them from subdividing the property, citing the devaluation of the property as potential purchasers would be in doubt as to how the property might be zoned and redeveloped, and alleging violation of their due process and equal protection rights under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. On April 20, 2012, the Village Board of Trustees adopted a resolution terminating the moratorium effective immediately, and Easton LLC’s complaint was dismissed. In 2012, Hurricane Sandy hit and created substantial damage to the property, with many mature trees felled and with a tree falling and damaging the tool shed/ping pong building located to the southwest of the Laundry Cottage. Costs to fully repair damage, including removing felled trees, repairing roofs and damage sustained to the tool shed/ping pong building were prohibitive, and, therefore, only limited clearing of debris and downed trees was undertaken at a much smaller cost, leaving much of the fallen trees and damage in the wooded areas, “conservatory” roof, and tool shed/ping pong building as is. 10
As a result of the limited financial return from renting vs the costs to maintain the property and pay property taxes, failure to obtain approval for the initial cluster subdivision and the high costs of trying to gain approval for a subdivision, and the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy, the former owners by the end of 2012 began to try to sell the property through a number of different brokers. Though there were prospective buyers who visited the property, none of the prospective buyers were interested in purchasing the property to retain it for private residential use, with the potentially interested buyers consisting of developers whose interest in the property lay in its subdivision potential. In January 2015, the property was purchased by the applicant at a cost of $20 million for the purpose of subdivision. The property did not have historic standing at that time, and was subsequently determined National-Register eligible by OPRHP through their review of the applicant’s proposed subdivision on September 3, 2015. C. ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS As the property has been determined National Register eligible, the applicant has considered several options to avoid and minimize impacts on the historic property. These include 1) keeping the property intact, including retaining all the buildings and landscape features on the site and adaptively reusing the buildings; and 2) considering a subdivision that would retain all or most of the buildings and landscape features on the property. A third option, a subdivision approval that would allow for the subdivision of the property that would include the demolition of the buildings on the site except for one structure that may feasibly retained, has also been considered. As described in greater detail below, the following analysis concludes that it is not feasible to retain and reuse the estate buildings and landscape features except for one building and associated landscaping elements, as described in third alternative. ALTERNATIVE 1: RETAIN PROPERTY INTACT FOR ADAPTIVE REUSE As described above, two of the estate buildings, the pool house and the barn, are in poor condition, are not insulated or have formal heating systems, and have very small floor area. They do not lend themselves to reuse as permanent residences. The pump house is also a small building not built for residential purposes that is also not conducive for residential use. The “conservatory,” a structure that is only a shell and never meant for residential use and that was damaged by Hurricane Sandy, would require a substantial financial investment to rebuild it for residential use if it were to remain on the property. Currently, only two buildings are occupied, with functioning utilities, on the property. These are the chauffer’s apartment, occupied as a rental with a monthly rent of $3,000/month and the Greenhouse Cottage, which is periodically used by the current owners of the property (the applicant) when they are in the area. Annual property taxes are $357,000, with an additional approximately $60,000 in annual maintenance costs, including salary for the property manager; this salary is currently based on only two buildings being occupied and limited maintenance and repairs to the other non-occupied buildings. Maintenance costs would be assumed to increase for any additionally occupied buildings, to include costs to bring the buildings into a rentable condition, make repairs and perform general maintenance, and for a salary increase to the property manager. The current property owner has explored the feasibility of continuing to rent the buildings on the site. However, the limited rental income that could be generated for the small buildings in today’s rental market would not begin to cover the approximately $417,000 annual property tax 11
and maintenance fees. Assuming a $3,000 monthly rental income for the chauffer’s apartment, and $4,000/month for each of the Winter, Laundry, Pond, and Greenhouse Cottages, an annual rental income of $228,000 could be achieved. This amount would only offset slightly more than half of the annual property taxes and maintenance fees, and does not take into account the additional cost of upgrades and repairs that would be needed to rent the buildings today— including work that would be required at the Winter Cottage, Laundry Cottage, and Pond Cottage which have been closed and uninhabited for a number of years, in addition to the increase in maintenance costs for additional occupied buildings and corresponding increase in salary for the property manager. The limited income that could be achieved through the rental the Winter Cottage, Laundry Cottage, Greenhouse Cottage, Chauffer’s apartment and Pond Cottage would not justify rental as a permanent use for the property as it would not cover the property expenses. In addition, any rental of the Winter Cottage and Laundry Cottage would require a permanent solution with respect to the “Conservatory” to which the wing walls are attached, a vacant structure that would either need to be rebuilt as an occupiable space, or demolished, as well as the pool house and barn, which are in poor condition. This work would incur substantial additional expenses. The potential rental income, assuming that renters could be found for the buildings, would not begin to offset the annual property expenses, nor justify the $20 million paid by the current owners for the property. As the property is zoned for residential use only, its adaptive reuse for other purposes would not be permitted by the Village of Muttontown without approval. In addition, its reuse potential for other uses is low. As demonstrated during the sale of the property, interested buyers for a property of this size were interested in it as an investment for residential redevelopment. The removal of the original mansion, and subsequent replacement with a shell of a structure, the “conservatory”, that is an unfinished building with moss and mold growing in it that was additionally damaged by Hurricane Sandy, has contributed to the lack of viability of the property to be purchased for private residential use. ALTERNATIVE 2: SUBDIVISION THAT ALLOWS FOR RETENTION OF ALL OR MOST OF THE BUILDINGS ON THE SITE The potential for subdividing the property and retaining the former estate buildings has also been considered. As described above, such an approach was previously pursued by the Hall family, where the proposed 2005 cluster subdivision would have retained the Winter Cottage and Laundry Cottage. Subsequent to the failure to gain approval of that subdivision, and as a result of the 2010 and 2011 subdivision moratoriums, the Village of Muttontown enacted much more stringent zoning that governs subdivisions and limits the development potential of the property. Current zoning in the Village of Muttontown allows for single-family homes on a minimum of three-acre lots. However, the recent zoning amendments enacted by the Village require additional area deductions from yield, resulting in minimum lot sizes which in most cases exceed the three-acre minimum lot size. The zoning constraints include: A 50 foot buffer is required around the perimeter of the property, the area of which is deducted from the lot yield. Development must be set back 50 feet from the lot lines, or the perimeter buffer of the subdivision. 12
No development is permitted in wetland areas and within a 100 foot buffer around the wetlands. The wetland area and adjacent 100 foot buffer is deducted from lot yield. zoning is highly restrictive with respect to prohibiting development on steep slopes and slopes of 15% and greater are deducted from lot yield. a subdivision requires an access road that allows dual fire truck access as the property only has access to one existing roadway, Muttontown Road. The subdivision roadway must be 70 feet wide, which must include two 22-foot-wide travel lanes, a six-foot-wide median, and ten-foot-wide shoulders. Retention of the existing buildings, coupled with the constraints of the existing zoning regulations that require a minimum of three acres per lot, certain setbacks, buffers, and prohibition of development on steep slopes and wetland areas/wetland buffer area, would severely restrict the number of lots that could be created. Even if other estate buildings that are not feasible to adaptively reuse for permanent residences, e.g. the pool house, barn, and pump house were additionally removed, the subdivision would have to work around the existing remaining buildings and in conformance with zoning. This would eliminate the potential of creating efficiencies in laying out the subdivision, and would result in a low number of developable lots. In addition, the existing driveway would have to be substantially altered or replaced in its entirety at the required 70-foot-wide dimension to create access to the subdivided lots on the property. In addition, those lots that would contain the estate buildings that could potentially be used as residences—the Winter Cottage, Laundry Cottage, Greenhouse Cottage, Garage/Chauffer’s Apartment, and Pond Cottage would not be marketable at the cost at which the lots with newly constructed residences would value (approximately $6 million) in Muttontown. Muttontown is a very expensive area with large homes. Properties in the Village of Muttontown typically include turn of the century estates to more recently constructed mansions on three- to five-acre parcels with properties averaging for sale at 3.6 to 6.3 million. A search of properties for sale in Muttontown on a typical day (April 4, 2016 was surveyed) included over 40 properties, almost exclusively single family homes (and with a few developable lots for sale). The square footage of the houses for sale typically ranged from 4,000 sf to 6,900 sf, with a number of properties with much larger square footages (e.g. 8,000-12,000 sf). Only one house was for sale with under 4,000 sf, a home with 3,826 sf. As has been described above, the buildings on the site, with the exception of the “conservatory” (6,152 sf) and the combined Greenhouse Cottage/garage/pump house (4,146 sf), are substantially smaller than most houses in Muttontown (it should be noted that the livable space in the Greenhouse Cottage is in fact less when the garage and pump house are removed to calculate the livable space square footage). In addition, the Garage/Chauffer’s Apartment would have to be altered from its current configuration as two separate first floor garage spaces with an upstairs apartment to be suitable as a marketable living space. The Winter, Laundry, and Pond Cottages, with approximately 1,376-2,964 sf of living space, are substantially smaller than most houses in Muttontown, with small rooms and second floor living spaces typically having sloping ceilings. Even if they were to be marketed as separate parcels after the property is subdivided, their marketability in Muttontown is questionable. 13
The loss of developable lots, inclusion of lots that include buildings of questionable market value and of a market value substantially less than could be achieved with new construction, would pose a serious economic hardship to the current owner. ALTERNATIVE 3: SUBDIVISION THAT INCLUDES RETENTION OF ONE BUILDING After careful planning, it has been determined that a subdivision of the property to create 20 lots could be effectuated in conformance with existing zoning and associated Village of Muttontown subdivision requirements (see Figure 34). To maximize efficiencies, a road in conformance with all zoning requirements could be built through the property, generally bisecting it. The design of the road takes into account undevelopable areas of the property, including wetlands to the west of the road on the lot that would front on Muttontown Road, a variety of steep slopes, and buffer and required setback areas that reduce the size of any developable lot area. The proposed location of the roadway maximizes efficiencies by in effect creating a “double loaded” lot configuration, with the one roadway providing access to all the lots. Due to the restrictions imposed with respect to developable area, the area of at least two developable lots has already been lost. There is very little flexibility in the placement of the roadway and lot configuration. Figure 34 shows the total acreage of each lot, with the corresponding developable portion of the lot barely achieving three acres to conform with zoning. The hatched area at the perimeter of the lots reflects a required 50-foot vegetative buffer, while the dotted lines that follow the perimeter of each lot in the interior depict the required 50-foot setbacks for each lot. Contour lines depict the topography, including light grey and dark shaded areas that illustrate the locations of steep slopes. The existing topography and zoning requirements combined allow for very little flexibility in moving the proposed lot lines without losing a developable lot. As shown on Figure 34, the placement of the conforming subdivision road requires the removal of the pool house, as well as the pool and remnants of the tennis court. The Winter Cottage and non-contributing “conservatory” are also in the footprint of the proposed roadway. The barn, a portion of the Greenhouse Cottage, and a portion of the Laundry Cottage fall within the required 50-foot setbacks for the lots in which they would be located. Even if the Laundry Cottage were not located in a required setback area, the structure would be located towards the front of the proposed lot, impeding the locating of a new residential structure on the lot. The Garage/Chauffer’s Apartment, located at the northwest of the property, poses a considerable problem in terms of providing a driveway to the subdivision road without interfering with the layout of the lots to the east that front on the subdivision road. In addition, the northwest corner of the property, the lowest lying area, represents the most practical location to construct the required stormwater recharge areas of 487,800 cubic feet and 212,600 cubic feet. Placing the recharge basins in this location alleviates the need to construct numerous leaching pools, which would then need to be placed throughout the subdivision (the equivalent volume would require in excess of 100 leaching pools with a typical installation cost of $4,000- $5,000 per leaching pool), eliminating additional developable lot area. After careful consideration, it has been determined that it would be feasible to retain the Pond Cottage as an accessory structure on proposed Lot 18 for a number of reasons: 14
It has a small footprint/square footage and lends itself for reuse as an accessory structure, such as a pool house. Its location towards the rear of the lot, where such structures would typically be located, is conducive to this reuse. The building is not located within any required setback or buffer areas and its retention would not require a variance from the Village of Muttontown. The building is the most intact building on the site. While it does not include any individually significant architectural features, including salvaged elements from the Main House such as fireplace mantles, it retains its original floor plan and architectural finishes more so than the other cottages which have been altered since their original construction, including the Winter Cottage, Laundry Cottage, and especially the Greenhouse Cottage. Retaining the Pond Cottage allows for the retention of significant landscaping elements associated with it, including the brick terrace and stone stairs behind the cottage, and the remnants of the formal flower garden. Secondary access to the Pond Cottage can be provided via the existing driveway from Muttontown Road, which preserves the original access to the cottage and estate and allows for physical retention of the most visible portion of the original driveway from Muttontown Road, including its stone drainage gutters, and landscaping that borders it, including hedges along the west side of the driveway leading to the Pond Cottage. It should be noted that retention of the Pond Cottage as a permitted accessory dwelling (as opposed to an accessory structure) on the lot with a new primary residence would require approval from the Village of Muttontown. While existing accessory dwellings are permitted in the zoning district in which the subject property is located, it is unclear if under the subdivision the building would still be considered “existing.” Utilizing the Pond Cottage as an accessory dwelling would allow it to be occupied by domestic employees and their immediate families, with also the possibility of rental.1 D. CONCLUSION As described above, it is not feasible to retain all or most of the buildings on the property either with or without a subdivision. The property consists of almost 100 acres with a number of small accessory estate buildings, where the main house has been demolished and replaced by an un- occupiable shell of a structure. Annual property expenditures far exceed rental income that could be derived, a number of the buildings are in poor condition, and during the sale of the property by the Hall family, it was evidenced that prospective buyers consisted of developers, not buyers interested in purchasing the property for reuse intact. 1 The Village Code states that an accessory dwelling may be rented or occupied by persons other than domestic employees provided that the lot on which the accessory dwelling is located has at least two acres of area allocable to each dwelling on the lot. However, it is unclear if the two acres relates to total acreage, or net acreage, e.g. after deductions for buffers, wetlands, steep slopes, etc. The lot on which the Pond Cottage would be located (Lot 18) has a total of 6. 88 acres, with a net (developable) acreage of 3.46 acres. 15
Due to the characteristics of the estate buildings, their condition, zoning requirements that restrict developable area, market conditions in Muttontown, and investment the current owner made to purchase the property, it is not feasible to retain the buildings on the site as part of a subdivision. The applicant has determined that it is feasible to retain the Pond Cottage, its associated gardens, and estate driveway from Muttontown Road as the retention of the building and associated landscape elements are situated in a manner that they may be logically incorporated into the subdivision, and their retention provides a substantive preservation component. As has been described above, while it appears that the Pond Cottage may be retained as an accessory structure on the development lot on which it is located (e.g. used as a pool house), further discussions with, and additional approval by, the Village of Muttontown would be required to determine whether the Pond Cottage could be retained as an accessory dwelling, to be occupied by domestic staff or additionally for rental purposes. In conclusion, there is no prudent and feasible alternative to the demolition of the former Easton Estate buildings on the property with the exception of the Pond Cottage, its associated flower garden remnant, and estate driveway from Muttontown Road. Subject to Village approval, the Pond Cottage would be used as an accessory dwelling. Otherwise, it would be retained as an accessory structure under the Village Code, which would limit its use to a non-residential purpose, e.g. a pool house. The applicant will work with SHPO to develop measures to partially mitigate the Adverse Impact, which would be set forth in a Letter of Resolution (LOR). 16
