history
Thomas Dongan, the fourth royal governor of New York, was given an 800- acre parcel of land in 1683 , which also included what is now New Hyde Park. Dongan built a mansion on what is now Lakeville Road. In 1691, Dongan fled to New England and eventually Ireland when King James II and his Catholic powers failed to regain power in England and Ireland.
In 1715 Dongan's property was sold to George Clarke. He renamed it Hyde Park in honor of his wife Ann Hyde. In 1783 he sold the Beiszt and at the beginning of the 19th century the area was divided into farmland. Raising cattle was the main agricultural activity in the area from Dongang's time until the mid-19th century, but as cattle ranching spread to the American West, local farmers were forced into other activities.
When a post office was opened in 1871 , the name was changed from Hyde Park to New Hyde Park because Upstate already had Hyde Park Post Office . In 1927 New Hyde Park was incorporated as the Village .

The village is governed by a mayor with four councilors who are elected for four years.
