History
The village of Westhampton Beach was incorporated in 1928.[4] In 1938, almost all summer homes on its barrier beach were obliterated by a hurricane resulting in 29 local deaths. In the mid-1990s, 15 historic houses were relocated by the Army Corps of Engineers. The homes were moved off a beach and out of harm’s way. Westhampton Beach has its own police and fire departments.[4]
The Crowther House, Foster-Meeker House, and U.S. Post Office are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
