History
Great Neck Estates incorporated in 1911, making it the second village to incorporate on the Great Neck Peninsula. Residents felt that the incorporation was imperative in order to maintain home rule. They also felt that by incorporating, they would be able to have services which they otherwise would not be able to have through the Town of North Hempstead.
A plaque was installed at Village Hall in 1981 to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of Great Neck Estates’ incorporation as a village.
In 1982, Great Neck Estates became the first village on Long Island to call for a nuclear freeze between the United States and the former Soviet Union after trustees approved of a petition started by three concerned residents on the Great Neck Peninsula. Copies of their document were delivered to the leaders of both nations as peace efforts.
