In 1985, East Hampton Town embarked on one of the most successful land preservation acts in the northeast. A proposed development of a condo complex for the Grace Estate was rejected by the Town. After years of debate, it was agreed that only 100 acres be allowed for only 30 building parcels and the remaining 500 acres remain as a protected nature preserve. The Grace Estate historical and ecological importance is a success story as to how acres of land can be planned and protected for future generations.
