More about the book
The history of Hillsdale traces its transformation from a quiet farming community to a bustling New York suburb. Named in 1856, the town's growth accelerated with the arrival of the railroad in 1870, prompting the construction of homes, a general store, and a hotel. The early 1930s saw further expansion due to the George Washington Bridge, attracting residents from nearby cities seeking space and a healthier environment. This migration surged after World War II, leading to significant development and the saturation of Hillsdale's available land.
