Another notable early building is the Van Zandt manor house (c. 1819), which is now the Douglaston Club. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. In 1997, New York City's Landmarks Preservation Commission designated Douglas Manor as the Douglaston Historic District, ensuring that no new buildings or external alterations could be made without the commission's approval.
