ABOUT THE COMMUNITY
Founded by former U.S. Vice President Daniel D. Tompkins and once the site of a Naval Frontier base, Tompkinsville faces New York Harbor between St. George and Stapleton.
You’ll see mainly single-family homes built in the early 20th century and an appealing commercial node around Tompkinsville Park. The neighborhood hosts a lively music, dining, and arts scene, and is the home of local craft beer brewer and distributor Flagship Brewery and co-working space Enrichmint.
Tompkinsville is demographically and culturally diverse and is home to one of the largest Sri Lankan communities outside of the country. This "Little Sri Lanka" has a fast-growing culinary reputation.

The Angiuli Group
Gary & Sam Angiuli
Father and son duo Gary and Sam Angiuli are long-time property owners and developers in Downtown Staten Island. Their most recent and exciting venture has been the development of Minthorne Street in Tompkinsville, a cluster of locally-owned businesses that includes a brewery, several restaurants, and a fitness/wellness center that is enriching an entire block with a vibe similar to Stone Street in Manhattan. They soon plan to open an outdoor park-like amenity on Minthorne to complement the bustling strip that will include a major public art exhibit. Their commitment to Downtown Staten Island is strong and enduring.
"Bay Street is one of Staten Island’s few remaining main streets, a waterfront community steeped in history, And although for a time it was somewhat depressed, it is now the site of some of the city’s largest and most exciting business projects."
