Living in the City of Beacon NY
Population (Census 2010): 15,541 over 4.9 square miles
Beacon is a charming city along the Hudson River. With the opening of one of the world's largest contemporary art museums, Dia:Beacon in 2003, Beacon began an artistic and commercial rebirth. The scenic setting of Beacon next to the Hudson River has always been inviting. With a large supply of gorgeous Victorian homes and red brick buildings, new artist residents and new developments moved in.
Today, on Beacon's Main Street, you can find a mix of art galleries and studios, cute boutiques and a host of restaurants serving different cuisines, wine bars, and coffee shops. The Dia and Main Street are within walking distance from the Beacon train station, making Beacon a convenient and walkable arts destination.
There are also many beautiful public green spaces in Beacon. The Riverfront Park offers basketball, volleyball, fishing, and picnicking with panoramic views of the Hudson River. Festivals like the Strawberry Festival, Corn Festival, and Pumpkin Festival, and a farmers market and flea market are held at the Riverfront Park.
A popular hike is to hike up Mount Beacon. The hike is steep, but rewarding once you see the view from the Hudson Highlands all the way to the Catskill. The hike actually begins on a staircase following the course of the Beacon Incline Railway. In the early 20th century, the Beacon Incline Railway was the world's steepest funicular railways. The Railway stopped operating in 1978, and was destroyed in a fire in 1983, but hopefully may be restored in the future.
Beacon Commute
Beacon is located on the Eastern shore of the Hudson River. Beacon is conveniently connected to other towns along I-84 and to the Taconic State Parkway. The Newburgh-Beacon bridge entrance is on I-84, providing Beacon with easy access to both sides of the river.
The City of Beacon is approximately 65 miles North of New York City. The Metro-North Railroad operates the train from Beacon to Grand Central Station. Both driving and taking the train requires approximately an hour and a half, and many residents, especially the newer transplants, commute to New York City for work.
Beacon Schools
Students go to schools at the Beacon City School District. The Beacon City High School was newly built in 2001 and has many amenities including a swimming pool that is open for membership to the community.
