About the neighborhood
A beach block rebuilding
Hammels sits on the Rockaway Peninsula a block from the Atlantic, close enough that salt air and the sound of waves carry through the neighborhood. The Hammel Houses anchor it: mid-century brick buildings from a 1950s urban renewal effort, spaced around courtyards and playgrounds, with the taller Dayton Beach Park Cooperative and other towers near the shoreline.
The area shifted long ago from summer resort to year-round home, and it has weathered hard stretches, including Superstorm Sandy, which shuttered the community center residents are still working to see restored. The draw is plain and real: ocean proximity, and neighbors who organize movie nights, advocacy, and support for one another.
