          "Real-estate speculator Ambrose George opened a general store in Hardscrabble in 1841 and began buying land; by 1845 he had \"changed the name of the hamlet to Farmingdale,\" subdividing property and laying out streets.[1] The community attracted lumberyards, brickworks and pickle factories — an industry that also drew on the cucumber crops of nearby Plainview — before the Village incorporated in 1904.[1]",
          "The area's farms, the Village states, \"provided an impetus for the state to establish the Agricultural and Technical College in 1914,\" the school now known as Farmingdale State College.[1] After World War I, aircraft companies — the Village's history names one, calling it \"Liberty\" — sought manufacturing space as remaining farms were sold off, and the population had doubled by the mid-1930s.[1] In 1931 Alexander de Seversky organized the Seversky Aircraft Corporation in Farmingdale; according to the Cradle of Aviation Museum, financial troubles led the company's board to vote him out as president in 1939 and reorganize the firm as the Republic Aircraft Corporation, later the World War II-era manufacturer of the P-47 Thunderbolt fighter.[3] Post-World War II building consumed most of the Village's remaining farmland.[1]",
          "The Village's own history also records a local sporting legend: \"Charles Murphy's famous Mile-A-Minute bicycle ride — a publicity stunt in which Murphy tried to keep up with a Long Island Rail Road train and wound up setting a bicycle speed record — took place in Farmingdale.\"[1]"

In United States v. 243.22 Acres of Land in Village of Farmingdale, Town of Babylon, Suffolk County, 43 F. Supp. 805 (E.D.N.Y. 1942), the United States moved to condemn a 243.22-acre parcel, with Republic Aviation Corporation appearing as an interested party.[4] Judge Moscowitz held that where the federal government itself condemns land, it need not follow the New York Condemnation Law's default procedure of appointing three commissioners to set compensation, and exercised the court's discretion to determine the property's value itself rather than through commissioners, \"mindful of the unfortunate delays and unnecessary expense which has only too frequently characterized the commissioner method.\"[4] The case's caption illustrates that a use of the \"Farmingdale\" name extends into the Town of Babylon, Suffolk County, distinct from the Nassau County Incorporated Village.[4]",
          "A civil rights case tested fair-housing law against the Village government itself. In Rivera v. Incorporated Village of Farmingdale, 784 F. Supp. 2d 133 (E.D.N.Y. 2011), Hispanic former tenants of a 54-unit apartment building on Secatogue Avenue sued the Village under the Fair Housing Act, alleging that a proposed \"Secatogue Avenue Redevelopment Project\" and related measures — including \"no stopping or standing\" signs the Village said were for pedestrian safety — were driven by hostility toward the building's substantially Hispanic and day-laborer population documented between 2002 and 2004.[9] The court denied the Village's motion for summary judgment, finding that \"questions of fact preclude summary judgment dismissing Plaintiffs' disparate treatment claim under the FHA.\"[9]"
