Greenvale, New York
Greenvale (historically known as Bull's Head, Cedar Swamp, and North Roslyn) is a hamlet and census-designated place (CDP) in the towns of North Hempstead and Oyster Bay in Nassau County, on the North Shore of Long Island, in New York, United States. It is considered part of the Greater Roslyn area, which is anchored by the Incorporated Village of Roslyn. The population was 1,069 at the time of the 2020 census.
Located between Roslyn and Brookville, the Greenvale station is known as the Long Island Rail Road stop for the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University and the New York Institute of Technology. While LIU Post is located to the east in Brookville, it uses the Greenvale, NY 11548 ZIP Code and the Greenvale Post Office.
Until 1866, the community was known as "Cedar Swamp", and later known as "Bull's Head", until some point in the early 20th century; it has also been known historically as "North Roslyn".
On January 13, 1933, the Greenvale Post Office was established. It moved to its current location in 1976; the original post office location was subsequently purchased by a local business.
While many residential areas in the hamlet were developed prior to the Second World War, the 1940s and 1950s saw the development of the area adjacent to the Roslyn Cemetery and the Long Island Rail Road tracks (including Park Avenue and Wellington Road).
A major shopping center, Wheatley Plaza, opened in Greenvale in 1980, on the former site of Wheatley Gardens – a nursery. Developed by Castagna Realty – the owners of the Americana Manhasset – and first proposed in 1977, the center's construction required a change in land use from residential to business and parking.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 0.3 square miles (0.78 km2), all land.
Greenvale is located mainly within the Town of North Hempstead, while a small portion is located in the Town of Oyster Bay.
