County Route 33

County Route 33
Location: Amagansett–Napeague
Length: 2.44 mi (3.93 km)
Existed: 1930–present

County Route 33 is Cranberry Hole Road, Promised Land Road, and Napeague Meadow Road.

CR 33 begins in Amagansett at the intersection of NY 27 (Montauk Point State Parkway) and Bluff Road as Cranberry Hole Road, and is carried over a bridge above the Montauk Branch of the Long Island Rail Road, the easternmost LIRR bridge to exist. The name Cranberry Hole Road continues until the intersection with Bendigo Road (former CR 33A and unmarked CR 74). From there it becomes Promised Land Road. Both segments run along the northern edge of Napeague State Park, and continues to run through the park even as it turns southeast onto Napeague Meadow Road. Promised Land Road continues northeast as Lazy Point Road where it enters "downtown" Napeague.

The route crosses the LIRR Montauk branch for the second time, but this time it is at an at-grade crossing, where it enters a section of Napeague formerly known as East Hampton Beach, before finally terminating at Montauk Point State Parkway.

    But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.
