Kings Point occupies the eastern tip of the Great Neck peninsula, an area of stately mansions and rolling estates. It was among these homes of the fabulously wealthy that F. Scott Fitzgerald found the inspiration for The Great Gatsby0 . Kings Point is home of the United States Merchant Marine Academy, which occupies the former estate of Walter Chrysler. On the campus, you can visit the American Merchant Marine Museum. Its collection of items related to maritme history includes ship models and instruments. In nearby Saddle Rock, you'll find a restored grist mill, one of a handful of working tidal grist mills in the U.S. built in the early years of the 18th century.
