3. Killian's Hotel
The Historical Society of the Massapequas has provided the following description: "Killian's Hotel: Family owned and operated from 1868 to 1905. Well known for hunting and fishing -- Massapequa was a sportsmen's paradise. Many famous people including soon-to-be President Chester A. Arthur stayed here. The Hotel faced the railroad long before Sunrise Highway was even thought of. It was torn down to make way for the water conduit designed to take drinking water from Long Island to the City of Brooklyn. Today Sunrise Highway covers the site."
