     Built in 1927. I've yet to find information on who C. T. Southwick was. Arthuw W. Coote was an architect with the firm Tooker & MarshAccording to Paul Mateyunas home was later purchased by Carroll Earle. Earle was a well-known Nassau and New Jersey contractor, who built the State causeway to Jones Beach State Park and the Northern blvd. from the city line at Little Neck to Roslyn. He died in 1929.  The house still stands. Follow THIS LINK to see.
