Actually, the thing I dislike the most about Long Island is how it's basically a dead end... especially the further east you are, the harder it is to get off the island (unless you rely on ferry service). I live about 60 miles west of NYC. If I want to have good NYC pizza, I can either drive 40 miles to Staten Island or drive 14 miles to a train station and get to NYC in a reasonable time. If I want to catch a Philadelphia Phillies game or grab a good cheesesteak sandwich, I'm in Philly in under an hour. If I want to have breakfast at a Waffle House or check out one of the casinos in Bethlehem, Pa., I'm there in 45 minutes or less. The only thing Suffolk County is close to is Connecticut and Rhode Island, and without relying on a ferry, I can probably get to Old Saybrook faster than somebody in Greenport, where you can probably see Old Saybrook on a clear day!If they ever built the Oyster Bay to Rye Bridge and another bridge east of there (Port Jeff to Bridgeport), I would most likely think differently... |
