    Glen Cove, N.Y.: An Old Gem Poised for a Comeback Slide Show | Living in ... Glen Cove, N.Y. Where the wealthy once summered on the North Shore of Long Island, development is again booming. September 27, 2017 Living In By MARCELLE SUSSMAN FISCHLER For 43 years, Lorraine Wendt, 79, loved her five-bedroom house on more than two acres in Lloyd Neck, N.Y. But as a widow, she wanted to downsize, though she couldn’t decide whether she preferred to be on the water or in a town. In Glen Cove, a seven-square-mile, ethnically and economically diverse city on the North Shore of Nassau County, she found both. “It’s city, but country, and it’s on the water,” said Ms. Wendt, who plays golf with a friend at the municipal Glen Cove Golf Club . “This is the most perfect, idyllic situation I could be in.” In July, she put a deposit on a $700,000 one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath unit with views of Glen Cove Creek and Hempstead Harbor at the 167-unit Beacon, a condo complex under construction at Garvies Point . Twenty-two units have been sold, said Joseph V. Graziose, 55, a lifelong resident of Glen Cove and senior vice president at RXR Realty, the developer. A mixed-use development on a cleaned-up Superfund site, where infrastructure and foundation work is underway, Garvies Point will have 569 condominiums, 541 rental apartments, a 1.1-mile waterfront esplanade, an amphitheater, three marinas, shops, a restaurant and cafe with outdoor dining, a dog park and more than 27 acres of open space and public parks.
