The Sag Harbor Industries area was one of 4 Superfund sites in this small town that I grew up in.

all the new city people moving out need to watch this and realize where they moved and stop destroying and building up and honor the heritage and past.

I grew up in Sag Harbor and went to school at Pierson. I had not been out there for a while but people I grew up with told me it was not the same. When I went out there 5 years ago (and last year), I saw what they were talking about. The soul has been sucked out of the town. Also, where I grew up, Sag Harbor Hills, there was constant construction work with people buying the houses and making "Mini McMansions." Disgraceful!!! 🥵

Amen to everybody's reactions. You can't stop change but it doesn't have to be ignorant and destructive.
