The Donald W. Lamb Memorial Building, which contains the offices of the East Hampton Town Trustees. It was once part of a complex of buildings on Bluff Road which were part of a Naval Direction-Finding Station that operated from 1921 through World War II. The station provided bearings for Naval and merchant vessels, and during the war intercepted transmissions from German ships and U-boats. Lamb was the transmitter building for the low-frequency direction-finding station, which was built around 1939.
