Secrets of the South Shore Takes You Inside Mysterious Landmark

Is it haunted? Maybe ... but that won't stop Stacey Sweet from going in! Follow Stacey (or maybe you should go first) inside a place that's off limits to the public and yet can be seen for miles in every direction on the South Shore. What is it?

Amazingly enough, it is one of Long Island's biggest question marks.

And when I say big, I mean all 231 feet (in the air) of it. For something that most of us have passed by hundreds or thousands of times in our lives as Long Islanders, it's amazing that many people who live here have no idea what it actually is.

There's history and there's mystery to explore here. And you're coming along for the unprecedented tour. Yes, no one gets inside. It's completely off limits to the public.

But Patch is taking you ... where you have never been before ... and will never go again. Join Stacey Sweet for your once in a lifetime pass that will finally put the mystery to rest.

Check back tomorrow for the latest installment of Secrets of the South Shore.

The NBUFSD BOE has not mentioned cutting bussing in over a year, it is not a part of the 2013-2014Read More budget. The pensions and benefits are not regulated by the BOE it is a state mandate.

Eliminating the CHSD is a great idea but it needs to be voted on by the citizens of all 4 districtsRead More . In BM we have 5 set of administration - North Bellmore, Bellmore, North Merrick, Merrick and CHSD . Pensions are a are a state and national battle NOT local

Well for starters, why not give candidates 401K's and only pay a proportion of their benefits...HireRead More teachers and adm that actually live in our district...... Has anybody proposed dismantling the high school district......From the way I understand they have tried unsuccessfully to combine, well then how about saving moneu and splitting up the 3 high schools...This was we wont need 2 administrations...... I will try and I will think out of the box!

You are going to do something that even Cuomo won't touch...pensions? Well, thank you forRead More recognizing the real problem that faces the taxpayers but how will you address the problem and not just promise?

So Lu Scala never had any children so it might be safe to say you have never been to a PTA meetingRead More or a School Board meeting or a budget presentation so then you would have no idea how the money is spent good or bad. I'm sorry that your neighbors make more than you but like anything else you get what you pay for there are educational requirements for teaching and administration jobs, I'm sure you would be happy if all the school personnel could be replaced by minimum wage earners or better yet we could close all the schools after all you have been out of school for 40 years so you don't need them anymore, but thats not how it works. Why is always the uninformed that speak loudest and longest?

A bit of a surprise considering kids come home with a supply list a mile long (and average $40-$75).
