Leeds Pond Sub-Watershed

The Leeds Pond Sub-Watershed is a sub-watershed of Manhasset Bay and the Manhasset Bay Watershed. The area of the watershed is approximately 2,275 acres (921 ha). The storm water which flows into Leeds Pond then has an overflow discharge into Manhasset Bay. Much of the area within watershed's boundaries is developed, and most stormwater in the watershed therefore enters the pond via. storm drains.

• Flower Hill
• Manhasset (including potions of Strathmore)
• Munsey Park

• Plandome Heights
• Plandome Manor
