EXIT Realty Hosts a Great Gatsby Themed Party in a Historical Home

Smithtown, NY (Grassroots Newswire) October 22, 2018 -- Real estate agents from EXIT Realty in Smithtown will be hosting a Great Gatsby Themed Party in a Historical Home on October 25, 2018 at 99 Ocean Avenue, Islip, NY.

This is a formal event hosted by the Furnari Team and is by RSVP only. The event takes place from 6pm to 9pm at the 99 Ocean Avenue Home.

Jason Furnari, Listing Agent, shares the following "This home has a great history. Built in 1900, the home originally sat on ten acres of land and was considered a “modern farmhouse”. Despite being called that, the home is designed with an impressive sixty-six hundred square feet of living space over three floors. The home found its place in history in 1947, when Senator Robert F. Wager bought this estate as his family’s summer home. In the 1950s, his son, NYC Mayor Robert F. Wager Jr., took over the property until it was sold in 1966. In the mid-1930s, Senator Wagner had drafted and introduced a bill for the Social Security Act to provide pensions and retirement to working Americans. The bill was signed into law later by President Roosevelt, and rumor has it that the president at one time was a guest of the great house. The home has been host to many parties, heads of state, and celebrities throughout the ages. Although the political guests, very rarely did politics intrude on the Wager Family’s live in Islip. It is, however, noted that in 1956, when Mayor Wager was running for Senator, Adlai Stevenson was running for president. There was a white picket fence all around the house and someone had vandalized it in the middle of the night, painting “I like Ike” in black paint. Instead of repainting it, the Wagner family instead went outside and added “And Bob, too!" In more recent history, 99 Ocean Avenue has been frequently on the list of Islip’s Christmas houses, an annual tour led by the Town of Islip Historical Society through the town’s most historical homes.
