Hammond had the grounds landscaped extensively when he bought the remaining 242 acres of the estate 25 years ago,, built three swimming pools and used it as a summer home until 1932. Charles Forko, caretaker, and his family have attempted to keep the grounds well groomed, but weeds and the elements have done much to return Point Breeze to a state of dilapidation.

Roundups have rid the islands of most of the wild ponies. The battle has been carried right into the teeth of the Atlantic which is so turbulent in the region of dreaded Diamond shoals. For years the storms have wasted the beach, and the ocean has advanced so far that several years ago the government abandoned old Hatteras lighthouse, highest in the East, to the waves.
