History

The Great Neck Gardens CDP was first created for the 2000 United States Census.

Like the rest of the Great Neck Peninsula, this area was historically known as Madnan’s Neck.

The Allen family was one of the first European families to settle in the Great Neck area. They owned large portions of property (including farms) now located within modern-day Great Neck Gardens.
