They are Museum Row (Cradle of Aviation Museum, Nassau County Firefighters’ Museum in Garden City), Old Bethpage Village Restoration (pre-Civil War buildings), Americana Manhasset (60 boutiques at a single location), Old Westbury Gardens, Sands Point Park and Preserve (three castle-like mansions), Bethpage Black Golf Course/Bethpage State Park, Sagamore Hill National Historic Site (Teddy Roosevelt’s “Summer White House"), Belmont Park (race track), Jones Beach and Long Beach Boardwalk.
The County, which says it “might just be the most exciting place this side of New York City,” wants a hire a firm “to administer programs designed to develop, encourage, solicit and promote tourism, convention and sports event business in Nassau,” according to the RFP.
Responses are due Feb. 26.
