Cold Spring Harbor, Historic harbor community on Long Island, United States.
Cold Spring Harbor stretches across 3.9 square miles of land and water on the North Shore of Long Island in Suffolk County, New York.
The settlement transformed from a 19th-century whaling port into a residential area, marking a shift from maritime activities to suburban development.
The Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory conducts molecular biology research, while the Whaling Museum preserves the maritime heritage of Long Island.
The community maintains two school districts and library systems, serving approximately 3,000 residents with educational and cultural resources.
Natural freshwater springs in the area maintain a constant cold temperature throughout the year, which influenced the naming of this location.
