Island Park is a village home in Hempstead on the South Shore of Long Island. Phineas T.

The village had also been known as Barnum Island and Hog Island. Island Park became incorporated in 1926. Prior to this, Europeans drove Indians east and settled the area. The area was mainly farms for hogs, thus the reason of the name which was used from 1665 until 1874.
