Council Member Ross-Hammond advised this was the most attended dedication ceremony with sixteen (16) different families who shared their memories of how the area used to be a wooded farmland before it was developed. Council Member Ross-Hammond advised the Great Neck area has significant history that includes the development of Seashore State Park in the 1930's, now known as First Landing State Park, explaining 250,000 men, who were part of the all African American regiment - Company 1371, cleared paths and built cabins. Council Member Ross-Hammond advised that although African Americans were not allowed to use the park, protests in 1951 led to legal action and the park eventually reopened in 1961.
