1 COMMUNITY PROFILE
Hopewell Glen is nestled in New York State’s lush Hudson Valley, 75 miles north of New York City. Located in majestic Dutchess County, it is bordered to the west by the Hudson River, to the east by Connecticut and to the north and south by Columbia and Putnam Counties, respectively. It is a town steeped in history, culture, and natural beauty.
Dutchess was one of the original ten counties in New York formed in 1683. It was at this time when two New York City merchants named Francis Rombout and Gulian Verplanck bought 85,000 acres in the county from the Wappinger Indians. This land was rich in beaver, had fertile plains and a stream flowing into the Hudson River that provided food as well water-borne transportation.
The intrigue and charm of more than three centuries of New York history are captured forever in Hopewell Junction and the surrounding area. You can tour the Van Wyck Homestead Museum, visit the birth place of Franklin Delano Roosevelt or stroll through sunny meadows and formal gardens surrounding the elegant Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site, overlooking the legendary beauty of the Hudson River.
History and gracious homes are only part of this beautiful area. There are also a number of cultural and recreational opportunities to take part in. At your doorstep, the Dutchess County Trail is a convenient place to walk, run, or bicycle. You can grab your clubs and play a round at one of the areas challenging golf courses, hike on the scenic Appalachian Trail, or attend a minor league baseball game at Dutchess Stadium. Don’t miss an opportunity to take in a Broadway show at the Bardavon 1869 Opera House, or enjoy a performance at the outdoor amphitheater at Vassar College.
In all, whether it’s a summer fair or a winter carnival, at Hopewell Glen you will enjoy the prestige, convenience, and renowned beauty of Hopewell Junction and Dutchess County.
