Longue Vue Island

Longue Vue Island is an island located in the Thousand Islands region on the Saint Lawrence River. The island is on the American side of the river, right next to the Seaway Channel in Northern New York. It is a part of the Town of Alexandria, in Jefferson County. It is also specially known as it is the only artificial island in the entire region. The original owner of the house was a Mr. Hudson Rose, a New York City lumber dealer. The island was originally named Rossette, after Mr. Rose. Later, the home was bought in the mid-1920s by Mr. Temple Berdan, and was empty from 1932 to 1939. Mr. Lewis Dollinger purchased the home from the estate of Mr. Berdan. It was later owned by the Dollinger Corporation and, after the tax laws were changed in the 1970s, was owned by the son of Dollinger Corporation founder Lewis Dollinger, F. Leslie Dollinger for many years until in 1994, it was sold to Arizona businessman Al Wareing, who is the current owner.
== Construction ==
The island and the house and boathouse that are situated on it were built in 1904. The island was constructed on four rock shoals, by building a rock wall around the shoals from a nearby quarry, then filling the area in with rock and soil. The construction was done by Barney and Chapman.〔 ''See also:'' 〕 In the 1990s, construction was done to the boathouse to repair it, as the building was starting to fall into the river. New rock walls were placed in the building to stop the descent and the level of the island was raised by about a foot by adding another level of rock, soil, and grass seed. The upstairs of the boathouse was also altered to include a full wet-bar, and deck space was located onto the roof. No alteration construction work may be done on the outside of the house, as it is registered on the National Register of Historic Places.
