“With love from the SHM:

The Irving Hotel”

Did you know that DuPonts, Fords, Kennedys, and Bouviers all stayed at the same Southampton hotel that began as a 12-room boarding house?

After acquiring a modest inn in 1880 at the corner of First Neck La and Hill Street in Southampton, owner Henry Terry began to expand it – and upon his death in 1910, his son Irving transformed it.

Catch the full story in our latest With Love From the SHM post—now live on Facebook, Instagram and our website: southamptonhistory.com
