Because environmental regulations prevent construction on the beaches of eastern Long Island after late April, unsightly sandbag barriers and other temporary patches will likely remain all summer." But fear not: Ronald Lauder has taken matters into his own hands. [WSJ via Hamptons Real Estate Blog]
