The Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Building
Built 1892

228 Main Street
​Huntington, NY 11743

This building, which you see before you as you leave downtown Huntington going east, was built as the town library in 1892. After the library moved to its current location at the other end of Main Street in 1958, the building, still owned by the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Association, was used by the Huntington school district. From 1969 on it became home to the Town Historian. In 2000, the Association donated the building to the Huntington Historical Society. The Society undertook an ambitious eight year restoration project and re-opened it as a museum in 2008.
