Bay Park is a hamlet and census-designated place (CDP) in the Town of Hempstead in Nassau County, on the South Shore of Long Island, in New York, United States. The population was 2,117 at the 2020 census, down from 2,212 in 2010.
History
Bay Park was part of neighboring East Rockaway until 1912.
The Bay Park Civic & Property Owners' Association was established by residents in 1926, with the first meeting being held the next year, on June 24, 1927.
The Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant, which is located in the hamlet and is operated by the County of Nassau as part of the Nassau County Sewage District, failed during and as a result of Hurricane Sandy in 2012. Subsequently, it would receive repairs and upgrades – notably in the early 2020s. The upgrades to the sewage plant will assist in cutting the nitrogen levels in the waters along that part of Long Island's South Shore.
