The Hempstead Plains and Michael Abbey's website provide various current views of the Long Island Motor Parkway in Nassau County. Several views show the former locations of the grandstand and press box for the 1908-1910 Vanderbilt Cup Races..
The six Vanderbilt Cup Races held on Long Island from 1904 to 1910 were the greatest sporting events of their day, and the first international automobile road races held in the United States. The races had a far-reaching impact on the development of American automobiles and parkways. This site provides comprehensive information on the races, the Long Island Motor Parkway and current Long Island automotive events, car shows and news.
