Please join us for our 2025 Country House Benefit on Saturday, June 14, 2025, at COCUYO — the stunning Locust Valley home of Alfredo Paredes and Brad Goldfarb.
Steeped in history and elegance, COCUYO was originally built in 1929 by renowned architect Harrie T. Lindeberg. The home beautifully preserves its original character, featuring intricate architectural details including fresco-painted walls, original ceramic floor tiles, and striking cast iron dragon lanterns.
We are very grateful to this year’s Country House Benefit Co-Chairs — Allison Aston, Carolina de Neufville, and Asia Baker Stokes — for their support and dedication.
The address for this party is

Locust Valley, NY 11560
![📢 Preservation Long Island staff were interviewed for Newsdays LI Life cover story published this past Sunday about the important role archaeology plays in illuminating histories often left untold.
“Archaeology is more than just excavation,” said archaeologist Andrew Tharler, the education and engagement director for Preservation Long Island in Cold Spring Harbor.
“We’re trying to understand how people were living in the past by looking at the architecture and artifacts they left behind and the places they were living.”
Archaeology has a sibling-type relationship with preservation. [...] Traditionally in preservation the focus has been on the aboveground architecture. But in the last 20 years our definition of historic preservation has become a lot broader. We look at the importance of the history and the cultural significance of a site. - Tara Cubie, Preservation Director
