Become part of the neighborhood

When you visit Eisenhower Park with your car rental Nassau County you may learn that the property was once part of the Salisbury Country Club in the early part of the 20th century. At that time it had five 18-hole golf courses. During the Depression, the owners were unable to pay taxes and the property was taken over by the county. In 1944, Nassau County Park at Salisbury was established as part of a vision of one county executive to create a part in Nassau County that was as important to the area as Central Park is to Manhattan. In 1969, the park was rededicated to Dwight D. Eisenhower. Within the park you will find a beautiful Veterans Memorial and Wall of Honor that commemorates the contributions of the Veterans and the Nassau County Firefighters who lost their lives in the line of duty. There is also a 9/11 memorial for the 344 residents who lost their lives in the attacks on the World Trade Center.
