Home rebuilds and renovations in Albertson

Postwar houses on old nursery ground

Albertson’s big postwar change came in 1946, when William Levitt built a small development there. The Hillside Terrace section followed: roughly 322 single-family homes on land that had been Bloodgood Nurseries. Searingtown carries the name of John Searing, one of the area’s earliest settlers.

Census figures put the median year built at 1958, with close to three in five homes dating from before 1960. For a house of that vintage, the real question is whether to update what stands or start over on the same lot.

How a project works in Albertson

No village hall, one Town office

Albertson and Searingtown are unincorporated hamlets, so neither has a village building department. Building and plumbing permits come from the Town of North Hempstead Buildings Department, which administers the state and Town codes throughout the Town’s unincorporated areas. Its applications, submittal requirements and forms are kept on the MyToNH online portal.

Albertson tree rules and the County's demolition deadline

Two rules to know early

The Town of North Hempstead ties tree removal to the building permit. When a tree is coming out as part of work that needs a building permit, Section 2-9(T) of the Town Code governs it, and Chapter 20A covers trees in the public right-of-way and in the front yards of private property.

Nassau County adds a deadline for any teardown: demolition starts within ten days of the inspection date on the rodent-free certificate. For the rest of the paperwork, the Town’s Buildings page points applicants to MyToNH for its submittal requirements.

When were Albertson's homes built?

Postwar building began with a small William Levitt development in 1946, and Hillside Terrace added about 322 single-family houses on former Bloodgood Nurseries land. Census figures put the median year built at 1958.

What does Nassau County ask for before a house comes down?

A rodent-free certificate from a Health Department inspection. The County says demolition is to begin within ten days of the inspection date printed on it, so the teardown gets scheduled around that visit. Nassau County demolition permits
