Just Enough Room Island, New York, USA
The Guinness World Records shows Bishop Rock as the smallest island with a building, a lighthouse, but it is not currently inhabited; in addition the rock is under water at high tides which contravenes the definition of island in the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. .Just Enough Room Island, formerly known as Hub Island, holds a currently used house, a tree, shrubs and a small beach.
