A Historic Gift to the Village

Established in 1915, Flint Park was generously donated to the Village of Larchmont by Helena Flint, daughter of Thompson J.S. Flint—the founder of the Larchmont Manor Company. Helena's philanthropic contributions also include the renowned "Mermaid’s Cradle" fountain in Fountain Square, sculpted by Harriet Hosmer.
