Collections Corner: Bailey’s Garage

————————

This is Bailey’s Garage, according to a handwritten notation on the image, which we believe might have been in Cutchogue. Let us know if you know the precise location. One thing to note about this image, which we find fascinating, is look at where the gas pumps are located. They are on the shoulder/curb of the road – not inset on the property like we are used to today!

In addition to the garage and gas station, this location offered many other things including cars for sale, tires, tubes, batteries, seat covers, and it looks like a sign advertising for “Real Estate” as well.

Website Highlights

Horton Point Lighthouse History

Horton Point Lighthouse is one of the most beloved local landmarks in Southold.

Did you know it was commissioned by President George Washington in 1790, although it wouldn’t be until the 1850s when the funding was appropriated for its construction.

Read more about the history of the lighthouse on our website, and visit us when the Nautical Museum to learn about the lighthouse keepers, the shipwrecks offshore, and to see our special exhibits.
