Hewlett Harbor is a village in the Town of Hempstead in Nassau County, on Long Island, in New York, United States. The population was 1,290 at the time of the 2020 census.
The Village of Hewlett Harbor is considered part of the Greater Hewlett area, which is anchored by Hewlett – and it is located within the region of Long Island known as the Five Towns. This area, like Back/Old Lawrence is unique because its rural affluence is similar in character to the more well-known Gold Coast of the North Shore instead of being more urbanized like the rest of the South Shore of Nassau County.
History
Prominent attorney Joseph Auerbach (for whom Auerbach Avenue is named) purchased large amounts of land in what would eventually become Hewlett Harbor in 1914. Auerbach, on this land, soon erected a summer home, in addition to what would become the Seawane Country Club.
Following Auerbach's sale of the country club in the 1920s, the new owners had large amounts of the club's excess land developed, with the land being subdivided and zoned for single-family residential homes.
In 1925, Hewlett Harbor incorporated as a village.
