History

The Village was further incorporated within the Cortlandt, New York of Cortlandt in 1849 and remained so until separating as a city in 1940. By the time of the American Revolution, the tiny community was an important manufacturing center from its various Mill (factory) along the several Stream and streams. During the original construction of the bridge in 1932 part of the roof of the Fire station was removed. Though Peekskill's terrain and mills were beneficial to the Patriot cause, they also made tempting targets for British raids. The river docks allowed transport of supply items and soldiers to the several other fort garrisons placed to prevent British naval passage between Albany, New York and New York City.
