Tarrytown

On the shores of New York’s Hudson River, just 25 miles from Midtown Manhattan, Tarrytown combines history, natural beauty, and a range of small businesses, making for a truly unique small-town experience.

Tarrytown was settled by the Dutch in the 17th century and developed after the American Revolution as a river port. The Hudson River Railroad arrived in 1849, and the village was incorporated in 1870. The opening of the Tappan Zee Bridge in 1956 stimulated commercial growth, and in August 2017 the first span of its dramatic replacement— the two-span cable-stayed Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge was officially opened.

Spend your days ambling along the Old Croton Aqueduct Trail or biking, hiking, kayaking, and ice skating at the Tarrytown Lakes, a 72-acre nature preserve. At night, catch a concert, ballet, or comedy show at the famous Tarrytown Music Hall or enjoy sunset jazz on the lawn of Lyndhurst, a grand 1938 Gothic Revival mansion.

Recognized as one of the “Prettiest Towns in America” by Forbes Magazine, Tarrytown beckons you to explore the ultimate guide to living in this remarkable village, where the perfect fusion of community spirit and artistic vibrancy awaits.
