New York state has one of the most unique histories of all of the American states. Formerly a Dutch colony, New York is home to some of the oldest cities in the country. One look at early 17th century Dutch maps of the Hudson River Valley reveals an Indian village that was named Sint Sinck. A term that can be translated to stone upon stone that refers to the extensive beds of limestone found in the southern part of the village of modern day Ossining.

Full of some of the most historic buildings in the Empire State, the village of Ossining is full of a number of structures listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A thriving community, the Village of Ossining is one of only 14 areas in an Urban Cultural Park System that is designed to attract visitors to New York.

Located in the town of Ossining, the village of Ossining is situated in the affluent Westchester County. With a population that was reported in the 2000 census as 24,010, this rapidly growing community is known for its multicultural community, gorgeous homes, and thriving economy. Considered one of the best places in New York to raise a family, Ossining is one of the most unique places in New York.

Equally famous for being home to Sing Sing Correctional Facility, one of the most famous New York state prisons, the village of Ossining is quickly gaining fame as one of the most desired places to live in New York.
