Community 7YVÄSL

ast September (2017), Westchester magazine, named the City of Peekskill as one of the “Best Places to Live” in its annual edition. In the article, it quoted one resident as saying, “The neighborhood’s Lart-and-culture scene is the direct result of an early-1990s city- planning strategy whose mission was to turn unused downtown properties from this once-industrial city into live/work artist studios and galleries, actively wooing artists from New York City via tax incentives, grants, and loans. While residents today enjoy trendy eateries…, galleries like the Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art, and the historic Paramount Hudson Valley Theater, ‘there is no hustle and bustle of a big city.’” As one can clearly see, located approximately one hour from Manhattan via Metro North Railroad, the City of Peekskill is a vibrant river city of historic charm and rich diversity. Among its offerings are a growing number of thriving businesses, entertainment venues, cultural facilities and more. And, too, some residents and visitors alike would say that it is Peekskill’s “restaurant row” that has literally put it on the map. Several years ago, it was named as one of the hippest towns in the Lower Hudson region by the “Journal News.” It called the city’s restaurant scene a major reason the locals consider it a top contender. “The dining options reflect what we love most about Peekskill. It’s artsy and creative, diverse and developing,” said the article. Here, a variety of entrepreneurial businesses and restaurants co-exist in the downtown district, alongside time-honored and well-respected businesses like Arthur Weeks & Son Jewelers—a fourth generation, family- owned business that has been in Peekskill for more than 100 years. There are other successful, century-old, family operations as well and these include N. Dains Sons, Inc., and D. Bertoline, among others. In addition to the downtown, Charles Point, as well as the whole riverfront are two other areas that are also experiencing significant business development and recreational activity. In fact, last summer, Charles Point officially opened Spins Hudson, a 40,000-square-foot multiuse entertainment center that includes a ropes course, arcade, bocce, shuffleboard, and other activities. it is clear that Peekskill is a city on the move. Even small shopping strips have undergone a significant renovation The hottest news in town, however, continues to be a multi-million-dollar with new regional and sometimes national tenants leasing space.

6 2018-2019 HUDSON VALLEY GATEWAY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ,UNHNLTLU[*VSSHIVYH[PVU HUK7HY[ULYZOPW Hello fellow residents and visitors to the City of Peekskill,

After having been a city councilman for the past two years, I have recently been elected as the city’s new mayor. To introduce myself, I graduated from Peekskill High School back in 2002 and am currently the owner and president of Noo Moves Entertainment, a company I founded in 2010. As the new mayor, I believe I bring an understanding of how the arts and small businesses can act as an economic generator in a local economy like Peekskill’s. Particularly, I also believe in the importance of developing strong relationships with public schools and the business community, as well as county, state and federal agencies. I know the importance of collaboration and the power of these partnerships in achieving my goals for the city with opportunity for all - including children, teens, adults and seniors. That said, as the new mayor of the City of Peekskill, I plan to work tirelessly in eﬀorts to open doors of opportunity for everyone, from children to seniors. As an innovator of original programs of music, and as an educator of those most in need of new directions, I feel conﬁdent that my fundraising and organization skills will be an asset to my new position. Accordingly, I will continue to introduce fresh perspectives in terms entrepreneurship, innovation, community engagement, collaboration and partnership, especially with other municipalities and organizations. Whether through music, politics or just walking down the street, I intend to represent our great city gracefully with love, respect and determination for creating a better world.

Sincerely,

Andre Rainey Mayor of Peekskill Photo by Howard Copeland

Peekskill broke ground late last year on a $4.1 million waterfront park and trail system that will extend from Riverfront Green to Charles Point Pier Park. When completed, Peekskill’s southern waterfront will be turned into a three-acre park and a one-mile trail system. There will also be two gazebos, a Hudson River overlook, a boardwalk across Travis Cove, and paved trails for walking and biking. Plans also call for decorative lighting, landscaping and the installation of original sculpture. Peekskill Landing Park, a joint project of the city and nonproﬁt Scenic Hudson, used to be a vacant industrial park. It is now a 4.4-acre recreation area with a boardwalk, a pedestrian footbridge, docks for kayaks and small Continued on Page 8

1650s: New Amsterdam (lower Manhattan) resident Jan Peeck (henceforth, the eventual naming of Peekskill) was said to *P[`VM have made the first recorded contact with the Lenape people of this area, then identified as “Sachoes,” although there are 7LLRZRPSS different versions of this account. European-style settlements took place slowly and, by the time of the American Revolution, the tiny community was an important manufacturing center.

1776: Industrial activities were attractive to the Continental Army in establishing its military headquarters in Peekskill long before its West Point military encampment, especially since the mills of Peek’s Creek provided gunpowder, leather, planks and ﬂour.

1860s: Peekskill was not only active during the Civil War but participated in the Railroad Underground that provided sanctuary and support to escaped slaves as they headed even further north to freedom. Around this time, Peekskill had become an industrial center, primarily known for its iron plows and stoves, as well as other manufactured products. Indeed, the Binney & Smith Company, now makers of Crayola products, had its origin as the Peekskill Chemical Company located at what is now Annsville.

2018: Today, Peekskill’s downtown district has appropriately developed into a major dining/entertainment destination, as well as an artist’s community with live/work art lofts. During the summer months, there’s a farmer’s market on Saturdays and a ﬂea market on Sundays. Currently, the city is experiencing an increased number of new development projects as it continues to prosper and ﬂourish.

roton-on-Hudson has a population 8,070 residents (2010 U.S. Census) and was formally incorporated as a village in the Town of Cortlandt in 1898, although its colonial history dates back to Cthe 17th Century. Its Native American background includes the Kitchawanc tribe, part of what was to become the Wappinger Confederacy of the Algonquin Nation, which influenced the naming of many sites and roads known in Croton-on-Hudson today. The Kitchawanc called the marsh that separates Croton Point from Croton Neck “Senasqua” and, consequently, the name was later used for the park that’s located further north. Croton itself is believed to be named after the Indian chief of the Kitchawanc tribe, Kenoten, which means “wild wind.” A plaque on a rock at Croton Point Park commemorates the spot where a peace treaty was signed in 1645 between the original Dutch settlers and the Kitchawanc tribe, under an old oak tree. Additional settlers arrived in the decades that followed that treaty - at first to trade and then to settle the area.

With the primary focus on local history, people, events and historic objects of past times, Peekskill and Cortlandt are highlighted at the museum in several ways. It offers permanent and temporary exhibits, as well as seven large display rooms with examples of previous industrial production in both cast iron cooking and heating stoves. The museum also has remainders of the former Standard Brands and Fleischmann Company products, as well as the former Peekskill Chemical Company, the forerunner of the Binney & Smith Company that now markets Crayola brand products. Another exhibit contains several large historic maps while the Children’s Room features some curious items including a 1936 soapbox racer, a Velocipede bike of the late 1800s, and even a giant string ball. More than that, several years ago the Peekskill Museum spearheaded the discovery of information that strongly suggests that this area’s “yellow brick road” was a major inspiration to the literary classic, “Wizard of OZ,” which has been covered by the media, including the CBS Morning Show.

94 2018-2019 HUDSON VALLEY GATEWAY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE APeekskill AIMs to Become a “Mediapolis”

rt Industry Media (“AIM” for short) is a newly-formed division of the Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce. It was created in fall 2017 to promote Peekskill and the surrounding Chamber territory as a media metropolis – or “mediapolis” -- for the Hudson Valley Gateway region. With its favorable location and unique combination of assets, the Hudson Valley is ideally positioned to take advantage of multimedia trends. AIM is designed to accelerate Peekskill’s continuing evolution as a regional center of multimedia creation and commerce. Multimedia is defined as any mixture of text, audio, still images, animation, video, film or interactive content. In short, the creative arts marketplace. What started as a vibrant network of mostly smaller, independent owners/operators in northern Westchester now is blossoming into a fertile destination with fast-growing appeal to ever larger corporate media interests. “This is an exciting new chapter for our community,” said AIM chairman Ben Green at the January 2018 public announcement that attracted major media coverage. “Peekskill was an industrial town, so it‘s designed to accommodate industry, from affordable housing to easy access to transportation. We don’t make stoves or hats anymore, we make media content. With AIM, our aim is to bring prosperity and opportunity to the families of Peekskill.” At the same January 2018 announcement, Peekskill Mayor Andre Rainey Members of the Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce AIM ‘18 Art said, “AIM defines what this city is made of: Creativity, forward thinking, hard- Industry Media Committee are (from left) Chuck Newman of The Charles J. working individuals, and a fun-filled environment.

WHEELABRATOR To develop,TECHNOLOGIES deliver and realize the potential of clean(BC) energy. At Wheelabrator, that’s our vision.

The Wheelabrator Westchester energy-from-waste facility provides dependable, environmentally safe disposal of up to 2,250 tons per day of everyday household and business waste for Westchester County. The waste is used as local fuel to generate 63 MW of clean, renewable electricity, enough power to supply the electrical needs of 67,000 New York homes as well as our own operations. Wheelabrator Westchester also recovers over 12,000 tons of ferrous and non-ferrous metals every year that would otherwise go to a landﬁll, directly reducing both greenhouse gas emissions and the need to mine for raw materials.

At Wheelabrator, we work hard to make a positive difference every day for our team, our customers, and our communities. We have pride in the service we have been providing to the Westchester community for over 30 years, and continue to leverage our history, experience and integrity to drive operational excellence every day. wtienergy.com/Westchester
