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.
