New York's Nazi town: For years it had streets named after Hitler and Goebbels, and hedges trimmed into swastikas. And you 'STILL have to be Aryan to live there'
Yaphank is just 60 miles from New York City but has a historic Nazi past
It was the unlikely outpost of the Third Reich with street names named after Adolf Hitler and Goebels

There is no sign left of Adolf Hitler Street, nor Goebbels Street or Goering Street. The swastika-shaped garden hedge and swastika stonework above a residential front door have also gone.
Nothing remains to indicate to the casual visitor that this unremarkable-looking rural corner of New York’s Long Island has an extraordinary history.
Where parades of black and brown-uniformed fascists dressed like the stormtroopers of Hitler’s feared SS once marched behind the flags of the Nazi Party, now children play and men mow lawns.
