The 2000
Census for Baldwin should be ignored. The town is on
the move and real estate is
going fast. It is very different from the last time demographic data was
collected and more rapid change is underway as you read this.
The prime
mover behind this dramatic transformation is the Baldwin Chamber of Commerce.
It does all the other things practiced by its peers-meetings and networking; it
also has a website. However this Chamber is a cut above for it has some
astounding and concrete achievements to its credit.
It
started with the streets and the area around the Rail Road Station. The entire
area was greened and cleaned and now has a spanking new look. Secondly, the
Chamber commissioned a professional marketing firm to promote Baldwin as an investment destination. Not
content with hype alone, the Chamber used another form of Consultants to draw
up a Master Plan for the town. This document lays out a detailed template for Baldwin's future.
These
moves have begun to show results. New technology industries have set up shop in
Baldwin and word will spread that this is a
town that no happening company can afford to miss. Take MEI Technology
Consulting for example. This pride of Baldwin has set new standards in Internet Marketing with high
uptime in web hosting, economical domain name registration and virus protection
for email campaigns.
It is not
technology alone. The new elegance of Baldwin's streets and downtown area has begun to permeate its
stores. Artie's Corner is an example. Exquisite home furnishings and aids to
interior decor grace the shelves of this unusual gift and decorative store. The
lace curtains and wall paintings are particularly sensuous and worth a long
drive to procure.
Baldwin's march to the future extends beyond
the narrow confines of business and commerce. The Greater Nassau Chorus of
Sweet Adelines International is an award winning
group based in Baldwin. The Nassau Dance Center has a Youth Troupe, provides both
tuition and performances and is an expressive outlet for people's creativity
and talent. The New World Music Center helps people realize their full
musical potential. It trains students to play instruments up to the semi
professional level. It sells instruments, services them and provides related
supplies as well. Pats Dance Studio teaches both classical ballet and popular
dance routines. It specializes in making learning to dance fun, especially for
children who may be skeptical at first.
The Baldwin School District seems to favor elementary education
with a choice of 7 schools in this category. The town has Middle and a High
School as well, so families can expect a stable education environment for their
children. The Huntington Learning Center offers individual tuition for Baldwin children of all ages to help them
prepare for School and with SAT tests as well. The Coes Neck Park has good facilities for sports and
games. It acts as the lungs of the town and provides easy access for children
to play and enjoy themselves in safe and green surroundings.
Baldwin has a large number of Delis and
Diners for such a small resident population. There are also a good variety of Italian
restaurants and some Asian places as well. The popular branded chains are
represented as well. The Chamber of Commerce with a typically deft touch uses
its monthly meetings to promote one of the town's restaurants by turn.
