For some, being knighted by the Duke of Gloucester might be considered the experience of a lifetime. For others, being a respected and decorated Naval Captain is an amazing accomplishment. What if you were a distinguished Fire Chief whose County honored you with a special day? That would be quite an experience. An architecture degree and an ensuing stellar career might be another person’s crowning achievement. Meet Carl Meyer, someone who’s so down to earth and unassuming, you’d be quite surprised to learn he has experienced all of the above in one extraordinary lifetime.

An Accomplished History

But once you get this distinguished businessman talking, you’ll find that many of his experiences are reflected in his past professional life. Growing up on Long Island’s North shore, Carl translated his love for being out on the water and learning how to handle both power and sail boats into a distinguished and rewarding career in the U.S. Navy. After returning to his hometown of Plandome, N.Y., Carl’s devotion to helping others led him to become Chief of the village’s Fire Department and elected as a lifetime member.

Architectural Passion
While Carl’s dedication to serving his country and his hometown never wavered, neither did his commitment to his other passion—architecture. With an architectural degree and more than 30 years as a corporate management consultant, Carl enjoyed the challenge of finding imaginative solutions for his clients. He soon channeled his architectural skills and knowledge into something much closer to his heart—renovating his 1925 Mediterranean home. From the barrel-tiled roofs to the original terrazzo flooring, Carl has become an expert on these distinctive homes—both through the restoration of his own and with his involvement with the City’s Historic Preservation Board. “They definitely have a unique aura about them that sets them apart,” Carl says.
