The village extends along the Hudson River shores, featuring multiple parks, residential areas, and natural reserves within its 10.8 square miles territory.
Dutch settlers and English Quakers established farms in the area during the late 1600s, with Stephanus van Cortlandt receiving a royal patent in 1697.
