Welcome to Lake Success

Lake Success, NY, is a small village located in Nassau County, Long Island. Originally settled by European colonists in the late 17th century, it was initially called "Lakeville" due to its proximity to a small lake. Over time, the village grew as a rural community.
 
In the early 20th century, the area gained attention when William K. Vanderbilt II, a prominent businessman, acquired land around Lake Success. His influence helped spur development in the area.
 
During World War II, the Sperry Gyroscope Company, a defense contractor, established a large facility in the area, which played a key role in the war effort. In 1947, the village became known for hosting the United Nations Temporary Headquarters while the organization's permanent home in New York City was being constructed.
 
Post-war, the village became a hub for technological companies and defense contractors, with the Sperry facility being replaced by companies like Unisys and Loral Corporation. In the 2000s, the site was transformed into I. Park, a commercial complex, and later acquired by Northwell Health for healthcare and research purposes.
 
Today, Lake Success is a blend of residential homes and business headquarters, offering suburban tranquility with access to urban amenities, while maintaining its historical significance in Long Island’s development.
