Going west to east, the sixth Motor Parkway toll collection structure was the Jericho Turnpike Lodge located off Jericho Turnpike in Mineola. The toll lodge was documented on VanderbiltCupRaces.com.

Built in 1909, the Jericho Turnpike Lodge was actually just a ticket kiosk without living quarters for the toll-takers. Overall, a total of 20 toll collection structures were built for the Motor Parkway from 1908 to 1928.

Enjoy,

Howard Kroplick

Ms. Purdy: This is also a act that Mr. Herling should be refering to. An article in the Williston…Read More Times dated Friday May 24, 2013 states: "The Herricks Board of Education is hopeful that a bill drafted by state Sen. Jack Martins(R-Min) to financially penalize landlords who create illegal apartments will stop the practice in the Hericks school district. The bill in it's current form would empower the school district or a municipality in a school district to bring legal action against a landlord who creates an "unapproved conversion" of a single family or two family house to recoup the expense of educating children in those living situations in district shools." And if you don't think the same is happening in the Mineola School District I don't know what to say other than it's your tax money.
