The Oyster Bay Main Street Association is
pleased to announce that, through the generous support of Mill-Max Mfg. Corp
and the Oyster Bay-East Norwich Chamber of Commerce, two additional locations
in the downtown have been improved.
Since August of last year, three participants in the program have adopted
and pledged to maintain three high visibility sites, which serve as the gateways
to our downtown, including locations on West Shore Road, Cove Road and Berry
Hill Road. For more information about the West Shore Road improvement click here.
These sites, which had largely been ignored over the
years, were a high priority for the Main Street Association. On Cove Road and Berry Hill Road,
specifically, the hand-carved “Welcome to Historic Oyster Bay” signs had both disappeared
and been replaced with unsightly aluminum signs that did not match the tenor of
the downtown. With their adoption, the
Chamber of Commerce and Mill-Max both purchased new welcome signs for their
locations as well as new plantings, which will be maintained for two years by
the adopters. The Cove Road location is
slated to have a sprinkler system installed with new plantings in the Spring.

About the Adopt-A-Spot Program
The Main Street Association’s Adopt-A-Spot program was
designed to help enhance the overall appearance of the downtown. The program invites community groups,
downtown businesses, or professional landscapers who are interested in
beautifying the downtown to adopt a spot for a minimum of two years.
How to get involved
If you are interested in adopting a spot or if you want to
recommend a location for adoption, please contact Meredith Maus, Executive
Director of the Oyster Bay Main Street Association, at 516.922.6982 or
