A rare buildable lot tucked into one of Queens' most under-the-radar waterfront pockets. 99-68 Rau Court sits in Hamilton Beach, the small, tight-knit waterfront stretch on the eastern edge of Howard Beach. It's the kind of block most New Yorkers don't know exists. Quiet dead-end streets, Jamaica Bay a few minutes away, and neighbors who've been here for generations. The lot fronts Rau Court near Davenport, with the Hawtree Basin and bridge just down the road. The parcel measures 45' x 106.26' for a total of 4,781 square feet. Zoning is R3A and the lot supports a 1 or 2-family detached residence with a maximum floor area of approximately 3,586 square feet, with additional area potentially available through standard zoning deductions. Height is capped at 35 feet. Buyer to verify all zoning, buildable area, and development potential with their own architect. Block 14231, Lot 88. Whether you're a builder looking for your next spec or an end-user designing your own home, the dimensions and zoning give you real room to work. Taxes run roughly 2,162 annually on the current vacant assessment. You're a short ride to Howard Beach proper for restaurants and shopping, minutes from the Belt Parkway, and about minutes to JFK. The A train at Howard Beach-JFK gets you into Manhattan. Cross Bay Boulevard, the boardwalk areas of Rockaway, and the bay itself are all right here. Vacant land this close to the water, in a livable neighborhood with this kind of bones, doesn't come up often.
