community and

North Shore of Long Island, the area is
home to, among other things, the
State University of New York at Stony Brook,
The
Stony Brook School, and "Stony Brook
Village." The history of the unincorporated

Ward Melville, a local businessman who
at one point owned much of what is still
sometimes called the "Three Villages"
(consisting of Stony Brook, the hamlet of
Setauket, and the
incorporated village of
Old Field). The Melville-created
Three Village Central School District
today serves all three communities. See the
Ward Melville Heritage Organization for
some history.
