"Major rd for Nassau"

Hempstead turnpike not only goes through Hempstead but from the queens border all the way to about Levittown
Pros
  • Plenty of stores
Cons
  • Too many cars around
  • Too many people at times

TracyD After Levittown, it goes into Farmingdale, but the name changes to Conklin St. It might be my least favorite road in Nassau- way too congested!
