On a recent May evening, Janet O’Brien served up Old-Fashioneds and tequilas on ice to friends at her Montauk home. The conversational menu featured what one might expect for a tony Hamptons cocktail hour: past and upcoming trips to Morocco, Manhattanites bragging about rarely stepping foot in Brooklyn and gossip about how much neighbors spent on renovations. The setting is perhaps the interesting part: Ms. O’Brien’s home is in what they all call “a trailer park.” Montauk Shores, the roughly 200-unit manufactured home community that overlooks Ditch Plains Beach, isn’t what immediately comes to mind when one thinks of a trailer park. The crash of ocean waves pierces the air, and nearly everything in the park looks to be in pristine condition — including the manicured lawns, the smoothly paved roads and the “trailers.” For many people, living in a manufactured home isn’t a choice, but a necessity. Here, the “trailers” are several people’s second or third homes, … [Read more...] about Inside Montauk’s Luxurious ‘Trailer Park’

Berlin police investigating Roger Waters for wearing SS officer uniform

Police in Berlin say they have launched an investigation Friday into Pink Floyd founder Roger Waters after he was seen wearing an SS uniform during a concert last week in the German capital. "We are investigating on suspicion of incitement to public hatred because the clothing worn on stage could be used to glorify or justify Nazi rule, thereby disturbing the public peace," Berlin Police spokesman Martin Halweg was quoted as telling the AFP. "The clothing resembles the clothing of an SS officer," Halweg reportedly added. Waters performed on May 17 at Germany's Mercedes-Benz Arena where, according to local journalists, a screen projected the words, "The show will start in 10 minutes and a court in Frankfurt has ruled that I am not an antisemite."

[What you need to know to start the day: Get New York Today in your inbox .] SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. — For the legion of rich and famous in New York, the unofficial start of summer means migrating east by luxury vehicle to the Hamptons, that slice of exclusivity at the end of Long Island. But this Memorial Day weekend they were greeted with a jarring new sight along an otherwise piney, bucolic stretch of Sunrise Highway, the main artery leading to the Hamptons: two six-story illuminated billboards being hastily constructed by a local Native American tribe just in time for the high season. Tall enough to rise above much of the tree line of this state roadway, the twin billboards — with bright electronic display panels operating around the clock — are about as far from the standards of the Hamptons as could be imagined. The billboards are being put up by the Shinnecock Indian Nation , a tribe that for many centuries before this area was settled by Europeans in the 1600s … [Read more...] about Why a Hamptons Highway Is a Battleground Over Native American Rights
