What a pleasant surprise to open up the East Hampton Press this morning to see that local builder, Hummel & Associates, are donating their time to finish up our famous land mark, Hook Mill. In these times of uncertainty and economic hardships it’s wonderful to see people reach out and help the Village they grew up in.
Hook Mill is one of the windmills that you learn about in the history books in school and is an important part of East Hamptons’ history. Christmas is a time for giving and I would like to extend a very special thank you to Jon Hummel, Jr. and the partners at Hummel & Associates for bringing Hook Mill back to life and preserving a part of East Hamptons’ past.
