Sixty-Something: What Will The Hamptons Look Like This Fall?

T.J. Clementeby T.J. Clemente

Home Community

There is no doubt a big change is coming to the Hamptons this fall. New homeowners are enrolling their children in the schools with many working from their new homes. Reports of extended home rentals also add to the equation. East Hampton Town Supervisor Peter Van Scoyoc even mentioned something about this new development in a recent interview. He said the Board was planning on an increase of full-time residents.

I have noticed different traffic patterns around all the back roads. In an interview that included a school principal, she mentioned the new students as part of the problem of safe spacing classes when schools reopen.

I recall talking to a former old timer who recalled how the Hamptons, specifically Montauk, changed after the war. Lots of folks started buying second homes and retiring out East. The rich always had their mansions and the farmers and local tradesman always had their modest traditionally styled homes. That changed.

An explosion of people building homes with new signature designs took hold all over the East End. There are parts of the Hamptons like North West Woods where no two houses look the same. In my opinion, the individual expressionism changed the Hamptons in many ways. It began the process of making the Hamptons more diversified.

I believe that process changed the basic population makeup of the Hamptons. It is still on-going, but will now accelerate. An indication marker might be this: until recently a major conversation point among locals I know was of the influence in the growth of the Latino community on the East End, specially in the school population. Now the talk is about the folks buying homes to exodus New York City. They openly wonder how this is going to change the town.

Beaches usually mildly populated on those magical Indian summer days of September and October may be a touch busier. No doubt the Internet will be taxed more than usual in the off-season.

Anyone who owns a boat has noticed the new increase of volume of pleasure boats in the many bays. For years, the trend was less and less boat traffic. Not that way now.

Those in favor of keeping the East End as rural as possible have not always welcomed people from NYC with open arms. On the other hand, the newcomers don’t always respect or know the traditions and legacy of those who came before them. When I moved out here, I made that a point to study know and learn as much as I could on how to blend in. Still, I had some awkward moments as will some of the new homeowners.

Until the Coronavirus, the real estate conversation circled around rich folks who purchased homes to either tear down and rebuild or covert to more luxurious summer homes. Now the new buyers are buying to live in the homes. Almost every real estate agent out on the East End is having a record-breaking year. The Community Preservation Fund Tax on home sales is also setting new records. The prestigious Ross School has seen its largest rise in application for attendance in many years. No doubt change is in the air and on the ground on the East End.

It was once said, “You either ride the wave of change or get crushed by it.”

  • On Tuesday, July 22nd, Olympic gold medalist Kerri Walsh Jennings hosted a charity Hampton Volley Tournament at Kirk Park Beach in Montauk. The tournament featured eight dynamic teams, uniting elite professional athletes, local lifeguards, and community members. Net proceeds from the tournament will go to the Hampton Lifeguard Association and P1440 Foundation, aiming to unite, empower, and inspire through the transformative sport of beach volleyball. ⁠
⁠
Simultaneously, a VIP gifting suite and lounge at Hero Beach Club in Montauk kept the momentum going with music by Rachel Winters and Ana Boo. To mark the special occasion, guests were treated to Hammitt bags with Montauk Tattoo personalized leather bag tags. In true VIP fashion, drinks flowed all throughout the day, compliments of Tito’s, Saint Spritz, Avaline, and Montauk Brewing Company. ⁠

  • Montauk has a new hospitality gem: Mary Lou’s Montauk. The high-energy, design-forward concept that blends coastal dining with a sense of playful excess. Mary Lou’s offers nightly dinner service, a full cocktail lounge and weekend music programming that blends nostalgic vibes with fresh energy.⁠
⁠
After launching in Palm Beach, the team behind Mary Lou’s, Alex Melillo, Joe Cervasio, and Topher Grubb, are bringing the vibe north, teaming up with NDT Development to open a new outpost at 474 West Lake Drive.⁠
⁠
Alex Melillo, co-founder of Mary Lou’s, shared about the origins of the concept, why Montauk was the next natural step and what guests can expect from this summer’s new venue.⁠
⁠
Can you walk us through the journey of how the idea for Mary Lou’s came to life?⁠
⁠
The idea for Mary Lou’s was born out of a genuine love for creating lasting memories and shared experiences. We’ve always admired the golden era of New York’s nightlife – when people went out to truly let go, to dance without restraint, and to enjoy the moment without ego. There was a certain magic back then, a raw energy that felt authentic and uninhibited.⁠

  • “Tonight is our most successful benefit ever!” said Louis Bradbury, LongHouse Reserve Board President, “We’re grateful for our co-chairs Gael Towey and Raisa Lopez-Rhoden, for their incredible leadership in bringing tonight to life.” For this special evening, themed, “LUMINOSITY’, the 16-acre sculpture garden and nature sanctuary lit up with vibrant colors, live music, community love, and lots of laughter. “With 100% board participation, our benefit sold out before invitations were ever sent!“, continued Bradbury, “How many of you have come to LongHouse more than once in a year? Have you seen the four seasons here? Daffodils, cherry blossoms, and azaleas in Spring; lush green of Summer; brilliant Autumn leaves, and spectacular snowdrops and witch hazel in Winter. Tonight, we come together in gratitude for all of it.”⁠

  • Can’t Forget Your QUAYS @quayaustralia @montaukyachtclub⁠
⁠
(It’s pronounced “key”—and just as essential.)⁠
⁠
As summer hits its stride, QUAY Eyewear brought the heat to Montauk Yacht Club with a picture-perfect Hamptons weekend – step-and-repeat hosted by the @tiffbaira, DJ, Caviar + Oyster Bars, cocktails, and of course exclusive giveaways from the Montauk Edit. The event celebrated QUAY’s summer-long collaboration at Montauk Yacht Club and cemented the brand’s place as a rising staple on the East End.⁠
⁠
Simply, QUAY makes trend-forward designer eyewear for any moment or mood, and at a price that encourages adventures.⁠
⁠
If the Hamptons are the capital of Laidback Luxury, QUAY shades pair perfectly with the aesthetic and vibe. The price range starts at surprisingly affordable ($39!) and ranges entirely reasonable ($105) – we’re here for it, QUAY!⁠
⁠
The Montauk Edit is fantastic. I love my “Fast Lane” and am 100% considering grabbing a pair of the “ANYWAYS.” The styles are Gen-Z and Millennial-approved—no small feat.⁠
⁠
In the Hamptons, great sunglasses are as important as your keys. Leave your gas station glasses at home, but remember, you’re in the Hamptons to have fun, so maybe don’t bring sunglasses that need an insurance policy. ⁠
