Neighborhoods

The village name Coxsackie is the translation from the native "place of many owls." This sweet perch along the Hudson River is punctuated by historic homes built by Dutch settlers, and renovated by those with a penchant for preservation. The vibrant Reed Street is its village hub complete with a Post Office branch, Heermance Memorial Library, as well as a slew of recent arrivals including Mansion + Reed general store, Reed Street Bottle Shop, Shipwrecked Bookstore, Yellow Deli cafe, Che Figata eatery, and retail shops. Stroll the block to wind up at at Riverside Park and take in sweeping views of the Hudson River, a playground, pavilion, gazebo and public boat launch. Idyll on a bench and there is always something to observe, from wildlife to massive ships hauling goods along the river as it has done for centuries.
