The CDP roughly corresponds to the hamlet of Springs. According to the 2010 United States Census, the population of the Springs CDP was recorded at 6,592.

  • History

Springs holds a significant place in the art world as the cradle of the abstract expressionist movement. Renowned artists such as Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and John Ferren found inspiration in this idyllic setting. Likewise, notable writers including Kurt Vonnegut, Joseph Heller, Philip Roth, Nora Ephron, and John Steinbeck have either lived in or near Springs. The area’s rural charm, combined with its proximity to New York City, attracted artists and writers seeking creative refuge. Housing prices “north of the Montauk Highway” on the bay side of the East Hampton peninsula have historically been more affordable than those closer to the Atlantic Ocean, further adding to Springs’ appeal.

Locals in Springs are affectionately known as “Bonackers,” a term derived from Accabonac Harbor in the area. This unique cultural identity is embraced by the community, with East Hampton High School adopting the Bonacker name for its sports teams.

Springs is connected to East Hampton by main roads such as Springs-Fireplace Road and Three Mile Harbor Road. Tragically, Jackson Pollock met his untimely end in a car crash on Springs-Fireplace Road in 1956. Both Pollock and his wife Lee Krasner are laid to rest in Green River Cemetery, with Pollock’s grave marked by a large glacial erratic stone atop a hill, while Krasner’s is marked by a smaller stone lower on the hill. Since Pollock’s burial, numerous other writers and artists have been interred in the cemetery, further intertwining their legacies with that of the local community.

The Pollock-Krasner House and Studio on Springs-Fireplace Road, now owned by Stony Brook University, offers tours by appointment. The studio shed, adorned with dried paint from Pollock’s projects, serves as a tangible reminder of his groundbreaking works. The surrounding neighborhood is designated as an East Hampton historic district. Additionally, the name “Springs-Fireplace Road” originates from the fireplaces located at its terminus, which historically signaled residents of Gardiners Island that supplies were available for pickup.
