North Shore (Long Island)
The North Shore of Long Island is the area along Long Island's northern coast, bordering Long Island Sound. The North Shore has a history of affluence, most notably at the turn of the 20th century, which earned it the nickname "the Gold Coast".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.classicalexcursions.com/tours/tourDetail.asp?t=12 )〕 Historically, this term is used only in reference to the Long Island coastline in the towns of North Hempstead, Oyster Bay, and Huntington, in Nassau and western Suffolk County. The easternmost certified Gold Coast Mansion is the Geissler Estate, located just west of Indian Hills Country Club in Fort Salonga, within the Town of Huntington.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://portwashington.patch.com/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.city-data.com/forum/long-island/1825306-makamah-beach-geisslers-estate-fort-salonga.html )〕
Being a remnant of glacial moraine, the North Shore is somewhat hilly, and its beaches along the Long Island Sound are more rocky than those on the flat, sandy outwash plain of the South Shore along the Atlantic Ocean. Large boulders known as glacial erratics are scattered across the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.garviespointmuseum.com/geology.php )〕
