In the early 1950s, Salkowitz designed the houses for the 150-home
Westwood at Roslyn development in East Hills, New York, located on land previously occupied by the Schumaker Farm; he would eventually move into one of those homes: 151 Westwood Circle. In 1952, he designed 515 homes for the 120-acre
259:, which he designed. He was married to his wife, Fae, who predeceased him. They had four children and several grandchildren. For many years, they lived at 151 Westwood Circle in East Hills – a home which he designed as part of the Westwood at Roslyn development.

Salkowitz primarily worked on residential architectural projects in Queens up until about 1950. It was about this time when he began also designing commercial buildings, shopping centers, and synagogues – and expanding into Nassau and
Suffolk Counties.
