East Rockaway
County:
Nassau
Located in the town of Hampstead, East Rockaway offers a hometown atmosphere and a progressive attitude toward restoration and revitalization. The Waterfront Revitalization program has added a fishing pier and floating docks at the Talfor Boat Basin as well as a boardwalk and railing around White Cannon Point. Commuters are enjoying the new parking field just south of the East Rockaway Railroad Station. Downtown improvements that include new curbs, sidewalks, and paving stones as well as vintage street lights and benches have been successful in attracting new businesses. The new recreation center, the Haviland-Davison Grist Mill historic site in Memorial Park, the upgraded John Street Recreation and Ballfield Complex, expansion of recreation programs for all ages, and the expansion of the senior center are a few of the highlights in this proud community.
