PIERMONT'S THE PLACE! 
Preserving Piermont's Future
The Village of Piermont is a uniquely special place, where the confluence of the Sparkill and Hudson meet the Piermont marsh, at the only natural break in the Palisades escarpment from the NY harbor to Bear Mountain. Tallman, Nebo, and Clausland Mountains stand tall over our Village, and the parks and recreation opportunities within them and throughout our community provide much appreciated escapes from our modern digital world.
Our geography is at the heart of our history, providing access to inland areas including Tappan back before colonial times, and through our industrial revolution as the eastern terminus of the Erie railroad and as an early manufacturing hub. That legacy can still be seen today in our historic district and buildings like our community center and Flywheel park.
In addition to our storied history, Piermont is now home to a great variety of restaurants and eateries, shops and galleries, and community events. Weekends bring thousands of visitors to partake in our gastronomical delights and stroll our quaint and charming downtown and Pier.
We are a full-service Village, with our own Police, Justice Court, volunteer Fire Department and EMS, Building Department, and Department of Public Works, all working in coordination with our Clerk’s office, where residents turn to for guidance of all sorts. We have our own Public Library, a community garden, public school, and several houses of worship. Our Civic Association puts on free concerts in the park in the summer, and publishes a free newsletter several times a year, while our Historical Society showcases Piermont history in events and tours, and open houses at our beautifully restored train station. These features complement our numerous open and green spaces, making Piermont an ideal location for families to grow and folks to set down roots for generations to come.
Being located on the Hudson River with a tidal creek running through the Village, resilience is a top priority for Piermont, and we have been repeatedly recognized by state and NGO agencies for being in the vanguard of adaptation to new realities and longstanding challenges.
All in all, words cannot do justice describing the myriad ways in which this Village, which I am proud to call home and to serve as Mayor, is exceptional and must be experienced firsthand to truly appreciate.
