About Brookville, NY:
Brookville is a village in Nassau County, NY. It is known as the home of the CW Post University and the Post campus's nationally known cultural venue, the Tilles Center. The Long Island Lutheran Middle and High School is also located in the village..
The geographic Village of Brookville, as we know it today, was formed in two stages. When the village was incorporated in 1931, it consisted of a long, narrow tract of land that was centered along Cedar Swamp Road (Route 107). In the 1950's, the northern portion of the unincorporated area then known as Wheatley Hills was annexed and incorporated into the village, approximately doubling the village's area to its present 2650 acres (11 kmē). Note that such figures are often imprecise and the cited figure was calculated by Frederick P. Clark Associates for the report: "Village of Brookville: Open Space Preservation Through Large Lot Zoning; A Village Master Plan Update Study, September 1989, Finalized January 1990".
One of the oldest existing church congregations in the country calls Brookville its home, namely, the Brookville Reformed Church. The Brookville Church was founded originally by 17th century Dutch settlers.
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are residents of the Village of Brookville.
