Editing A Necessary Evil VISITOR'S GUIDE to Freedom City (section)

===Lantern Hill===
The north side of the peninsula along the Wading River rises to a hill that is the site of some of the oldest settlement in the Freedom area. The garden apartments and row houses are still wonderful examples of 18th and 19th century architecture, many of them having undergone modern renovations. The neighborhood has a distinctly colonial flavor with narrower, tree-lined streets, brick-front buildings, and small garden plots or window boxes of flowers.

Lantern Hill is home to a number of historical sites, from the home of Revolutionary War hero Major Joseph Clark to the Lantern Hill Cemetery and one of Freedom's oldest houses of worship, St. Stephen's Church. It is better known as the haunt of the mysterious Lantern Jack, mystic watchman of Freedom since the days of the Revolutionary War.
