A kick-off Cocktail Party on the evening of Friday, November 23, welcomes in this year’s highly anticipated House Tour. This annual event, now in its 34^thyear, will be held at the historical Maidstone Club, ringing in the East End holiday season in style!

Explore our Historical Past through a Kaleidoscope of Distinctive Houses By Sea, By Bay and South-of-the Highway

The East Hampton Historical Society’s House Tour Committee has creatively selected five houses that express the unique spirit of living on the East End. The society’s annual house tour offers a one-time-only glimpse inside some of our town’s most storied residences. Whether you’ve longed to step inside a landmarked residence along East Hampton’s Historic District, yearned to take a peek at well-appointed homes South-of-the-Highway, or prefer the clean lines of contemporary architecture – this year’s tour offers a combination of houses that are sure to delight.

Step back into History, The David Huntting House, circa 1800

Located in East Hampton’s Historic District, the David Huntting House is one of five distinguished homes on the 2018 East Hampton House & Garden Tour, traditionally held over Thanksgiving weekend. This stately shingled house is known, by local architectural historians, for its beautifully proportioned pilastered front door surround, its paneled double doors and a remarkable curving stairway. The house has undergone a major renovation and restoration in the last two years and looks refreshed and appealing. Come and get first looks at this historical gem!

9 Two Holes Of Water Rd, East Hampton, NY

Known as the William H. Babcock House (circa 1720), this regal residence originally stood on Main Street and was relocated to its present location in 1964. The white picket fence is a replica from its Main Street days. The owners, working with East End architect Kitty McCoy, renovated the historic timber frame house in 2016-17. Materials and details from the existing house were judiciously added to the new additions.This aesthetically pleasing, local landmark is now located South-of-the-Highway, East Hampton Village.

South-of-the Highway , 1720 Meticulous Renovation

A Modern “Box” Infused with Warmth, Color and the Illusions of Space

Situated on Bluff Road, overlooking the Atlantic, this spectacular Modern house has been infused with warmth, color, and the design aesthetic of renowned interior designer David Netto. To very loosely paraphrase Winston Churchill, this is the lesson: “Never, never, never settle for a boring house.

Respect the box, but never let modernism harden into a doctrine that stops people from being comfortable or from living the way they want to. It may be the architect’s mission to create a crisp, minimal envelope, but it is the decorator’s job to find ways to add mood and sensuality, even through illusion”. Enjoy the collaboration of architectural and interior design missions, woven into perfect harmony in this “Mid-Century Summer’s Night Dream”.

“Salty Dog” Begs for some Lap TimeAffectionately named by designer Jessie Della Femina, “Salty Dog” is her answer to the challenge of building a new, modern home that looks like it belongs with the quaint cottages that have dotted Wainscott for centuries. It has been designed to be traditional and unassuming in style – both inside and out – but with modern amenities and technology. With a smaller lot, the house maximizes its footprint and outdoor features with a small pool, outdoor dining area, and an outdoor sitting area with a fire place. Ms. Della Femina is an avid estate sale visitor with a passion for recovering, repainting and restoring the items she finds. More than three quarters of the furniture and decorative items in the house were found at local estate sales (some were refurbished and others left as they were found). Enjoy “Salty Dog” – bring a biscuit!

Tickets to the Opening Night Cocktail Party are $200 each, which includes entry to the House Tour the following day. Tickets to the self-guided 2018 East Hampton House & Garden Tour are $65 in advance and $75 on the day of the tour. Admission can be bought via:

October is National Breast Cancer Month

October is “National breast cancer awareness month” This is a cause that is near and dear to my heart because 26 years ago my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent both chemotherapy and radiation. September 2017 she made 25 years cancer free, she was very happy about that, unfortunately she died from complications of Heart Disease, but not before celebrating her anniversary of being cancer free. I thought it was very important to discuss breast cancer, know the facts, the risks, and the signs.

According to “Cancer.org” In 2015, it was estimated that there would be 1,658,370 new cancer cases diagnosed and 589,430 cancer deaths in the US.

In 2018 it is estimated that there will be 1,735,350 new cancer cases diagnosed and 609,640 cancer deaths in the United States. Breast Cancer awareness is helping.

These are staggering numbers and of particular concern to me since I am a high risk woman given that my mother did have breast cancer. When my mother was going through breast cancer and had to have Chemo and surgery she was so sick and she lost her hair…I was so scared about getting the disease because all I could think about was losing my hair and my breast, how superficial I was. I defined my beauty to my hair and breast like many other women. Seeing how strong my mother was and how beautiful she looked bald, I realized I could not allow my breast and hair to define who I am as a person. Don’t get me wrong I like my hair and I complain about bad hair days just like 95% of the total female population but I don’t stress about it. No need to stress on things you can purchase…if you lose your hair, you can buy a wig…you lose your breast you can buy new ones…problem solved. Focussing on the disease is all that matters, that is why it is important to know the risk, recognize the signs and to take action on prevention care.
Everyone is at risk for breast cancer.

Being a Woman
Overweight
Increased Age
a family history of breast cancer or a personal history of breast or ovarian cancer

There are some factors that can increase a person’s risk, but some people develop breast cancer when the risk factor is not present. I would like to also add that there are men that develop breast cancer and younger women as well. Recognizing the signs are very important to early detection and being cured. Performing breast self-exam will help you know your body and what is normal and not normal. If you notice a change, you should see your doctor immediately. Here are some possible warning signs:

Lumps, a hard knot or thickening in any part of the breast
Swelling, warmth, redness or darkening that does not go away
pulling in of the nipple or other parts of the breast
New Pain in one spot that does not go away

Early detection is key in diagnosing breast cancer. Many cases of breast cancer are found by monthly breast self-exams…an annual mammogram is one of the single most effective methods of early detection. No one looks forward to having a very uncomfortable mammogram, especially women like myself who are well-endowed and you feel like your breast has just been smashed like a pancake. The sooner a problem is found, the more treatment options are available and the better chance you have of beating the disease and living a full healthy life. Once breast cancer has been detected, that is when all energy can be focused into enjoying life and defeating the disease. If somebody close to you is battling breat cancer, then it is imperative that you do whatever you can to help them enjoy every second as much as possible. Whether this be through gifting breast cancer flowers or any other methods, its crucial that they know how much we love them. I hope this reaches someone and you decide to take action, your life is important so you must take care of yourself. If health insurance is an area of concern, there are many services that offer FREE mammograms, all you have to do is ask. I am grateful that I have not been diagnosed I continue to do monthly BSF and I have yearly mammograms, no one knows why and how many women get breast cancer but if I am meant to get I will have a better chance of survival because I do partake in preventive care. I need to be around to nag my husband, drive my girls completely crazy and plan all of my friends birthday celebrations…until next time read Hamptons Mouthpiece….always keeping you in the know!!!! October is National Breast Cancer Month

According to New York State Breast Cancer Services: “Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in New York. It is also the second leading cause of cancer-related death in New York women. The best protection against breast cancer is early detection and diagnosis. Governor Andrew Cuomo has increased awareness and screening for breast cancer, including a public awareness campaign, community outreach programs, patient navigators, and mobile mammography vans.”

Require 210 hospitals and hospital extension clinics to offer extended hours of screening for at least four hours per week to help women who have difficulty scheduling mammograms during the typical 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. workday.
Eliminate annual deductibles, co-payments, and co-insurance payments (“cost-sharing”) for all screening mammograms, including those provided to women more frequently than current federal screening guidelines such as annual mammograms for women in their forties
Eliminate cost-sharing for diagnostic imaging for breast cancer, including diagnostic mammograms, breast ultrasounds, and breast MRIs for women at high risk for breast cancer.
Adds public employees of cities with a population of one million or more, to the population of public employees in New York State who are currently allowed four hours of leave for screening for breast cancer each year.
The NYS Cancer Services Program offers free breast cancer screening and diagnostic services for uninsured, eligible New Yorkers.

The Bridge Car Show Fast and Furious

The Bridge Car Show presented by Richard Mille located at The Bridge Golf Club in Bridgehampton, New York showcased 160 Rare Cars alongside Contemporary Art Fair, there were racing cars, vintage cars and luxury cars of every type on September 15th, 2018. The invite-only event this year increased its car exhibition from 100 to 164 rare and magnificent automobiles, alongside an expanded contemporary art fair featuring 12 of the world’s most renowned art galleries.

I am told it is the only event of its kind, and one of the most highly anticipated events of the season for guests, luxury brands and automakers alike, who are using the opportunity to do something special for this carefully curated audience through a variety of installations, product debuts, and displays. It is understandable that anyone who has a passion for cars would love to get their hands on some of these vehicles at the car show. Who wouldn’t? You need to be able to afford to make a purchase as big as this, and not everyone can do this just yet. Did you know that in Ireland, you can get cash for cars in Galway at Cars Bought for Cash? Maybe if you have an old car in your garage that you don’t use much or are looking to upgrade, this may be something worth looking into. You’ll at least get some cash to put towards one day having the car of your dreams.

Swiss watch manufacturer Richard Mille debuted a never-before-seen limited edition watch available exclusively for the Americas; the innovative RM 12-01 Tourbillion, featuring a manual winding movement that reinterprets the art and methods of watch design.

NetJets exhibited a full-size mock-up of their popular Bombardier Challenger 350;
Five hand-crafted hypercars (four limited-production Huayras and one Zonda) by Pagani;
Karma Automotive’s new special edition, hand-painted James Verbicky Art Car;
Rolls Royce’s new Cullinan (their first SUV)
Bugatti’s fastest and most powerful super sports car, the Chiron;
Terrafugia’s new Transition prototype – the world’s first practical flying car.

The September Art Fair at The Bridge expanded its presence in its second year, including twelve globally recognized contemporary galleries, doubling the size of its inaugural edition.

The art fair component was organized by Suzanne Butler (CANADA), Max Levai and Pascal Spengemann (Marlborough Contemporary) and was presented within Lars Fisk-designed doublewide shipping containers. It featured select works from 303 Gallery, CANADA, Andrew Edlin Gallery, Reyes Projects, Karma, Perrotin, Andrew Kreps Gallery, Marlborough Contemporary, Morán Morán, Vito Schnabel, Sies + Höke, and David Zwirner Gallery.

Some notable attendees at Saturday’s event included: David Muir, Steve Madden, Kelly Rutherford, Lyor Cohen, Vito Schnabel, Tracy Maitland, Howard M. Lorber, Alexandre Mille, Christopher Pagani, Frank Cooper, Roger and Wendy Ferris, Joey Wolffer, Lars Fisk, Zuzanna Buchwald, Polina Proshkina, Nacho Ramos and Whitney Fairchild, Stuart Parr, Xin Li, Michael and Elizabeth Borrico, and Silke and Savas Tsititridis.

Notable cars from this year’s event included a 1957 Maserati 300S XKSS, one of 26 examples built and raced at LeMans, a 1952 Chrysler SWB Ghia Prototype Coupe exhibited at the Paris Auto Show in 1953 which remains the sole vehicle of its design, a 1965 Shelby GT350 R originally raced by famed American drive Mark Donahue, known as “Captain Nice” at The Bridge, and a 1954 Aston Martin DB2/$ Drophead Coupe by Graber.

In addition, the line-up included a smattering of European sports cars including a 1960 Lancia Flaminia SZ, multiple Air Cooled Porsches highlighted by a 1964 356C Cabriolet, and a 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Pininfarina Rondine Concept.

Firsttimer at The Bridge was the SCG 003S (S for Stradale/road version)

I had an opportunity to speak with Jesse Glickenhaus the Managing Director at Glickenhaus Racing to talk about this take your breathe away vehicle.

Tell me about this car and how did you get started?

Jesse: We are an NHTSA-approved Low Volume Manufacturer that makes race cars for the road. We have been designing and racing cars for the 24 Hours of Nurburgring since 2011, and then we build road-legal versions.

Our SCG 003S (S for Stradale/road version) started with the dream of making the ultimate GT3 race car. We took everything we learned in 2 years of racing (including 2 24 Hour Finishes, 1 first in class, and 1 FIA World Championship Cup in Alternative Energies) and decided to make the ultimate GT3 from the ground up. The 003C (C for Competizione or race) was born and raced from 2015-2018. It came in first in class twice, took the Pole in 2017, ran a 6:33 on the Nordschleife course in Germany. Then we made a road-legal version, which is 003S, with a more comfortable interior, suspension, and gearbox.

What is the cost of this car?

Jesse: The price is 2.2 million and they are custom made to order, with a lead time of 9-12 months, depending on what the customer wants.

This vehicle is powered by a BMW twin turbo 4.4-liter reverse flow engine, which will be in the BMW M8. It makes net 1900 pounds of downforce in road trim and pulls 2 Gs of mechanical grip on road tires.

Where do you drive it?

Jesse: We drive it all over, including from our Factory in Sleepy Hollow to the Bridge and back on Saturday. People ask how it is on the roads, and it handles incredibly well. The Nurburgring is a winding, bumpy track, and the car doesn’t mind the bumps.

We have three settings for the suspension controllable from the cockpit (comfort, sport, and track, and even in a sport setting it was fine on the road. On the way home in five miles of stop and go traffic it wasn’t warm with the AC running.

Will you be back next year?

Jesse: It was our first time attending the Bridge, and Jeff (Jeff Warne, Golf Pro, at The Bridge) and the team did a fantastic job with the entire event. We will definitely be coming back next year.

This was a FANTASTIC event that was very well attended on The Bridge Golf Course and Club. The grounds were filled with incredible vehicles of historic pedigrees. Talk about Fast and Furious!!!! These cars were built for speed and luxury. Vintage cars, racing cars, Yachts by Riva and Burgess and a plane that Transitions to a car. Kurt Leggard attended for Hamptons Mouthpiece, This was a fantasy dream come true for him. He stated he didn’t know where to turn as his fixation on fast cars was satiated by the first few minutes at this event.
