History

The City of Kingston was first called Esopus after a local Indian tribe, then Wiltwyck. It was one of the three large settlements in New Netherland, the other two being Beverwyck and Manhattan Island. New Netherland (Dutch Nieuw-Nederland, Latin Novum Belgium or Nova Belgica) 1614–1674 is the name of the former Dutch territory on the eastern coast Beverwyck was a fur-trading community north of Fort Orange on the Hudson River in New Netherland that was to become Albany New York when the In 1777 Kingston became the first capital of New York. New York ( is a state in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions of the United States and is the nation's third most populous Shortly after the Battle of Saratoga, the city was burned by British troops moving up the Hudson River from New York City, disembarking at the mouth of the Rondout Creek on the formation the Dutch had named Ponck Hockie^[1]. Background See also Saratoga campaign The British plan and Howe's blunder The original conception of the campaign had been for Burgoyne with some eight The City of New York The area was a major granary for the colonies at the time, so the British burned large amounts of wheat and all but one or two of the buildings. There is some debate over exactly how much of a fight was put up against the British; one third of the local militia regiment was still to the north at Saratoga, and one third was to the south manning several forts (which were captured days before by the British). This would have left approximately 150 militiamen to defend the city against approximately 2,000 British regulars. In 1797, the capital was reestablished at Albany. Albany is the Capital of the State of New York and the County seat of Albany County.

The town of Rondout, New York, now a part of Kingston, became an important freight hub for the transportation of coal from Pennsylvania to New York City through the D & H canal. Rondout (often mis-pronounced "ROUNDOUT" was a village located on the north side of Rondout Creek near its mouth on the Hudson River in Ulster County The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ( often colloquially referred to as PA (its abbreviation by natives and Northeasterners is a state located in the Northeastern The City of New York The Delaware and Hudson Canal was the first venture of the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company which later developed the Delaware and Hudson Railway. This hub was later used to transport other goods. [1] Long before human occupation Deposits of river sand were created in the area during the erosion of ancient mountains to the east. This river sand now petrified became bluestone the same stone used in Stonehenge. Bluestone is the name given to several stones (1 a feldspathic sandstone in the U Stonehenge is a Prehistoric Monument located in the English county of Wiltshire, about west of Amesbury and north of Salisbury [2] . Bluestone, a popular choice for sidewalks in New York City is more pourus and weaker than Granite and slate. Bluestone is the name given to several stones (1 a feldspathic sandstone in the U Granite (ˈɡrænɪt is a common and widely occurring type of intrusive, Felsic, igneous rock.

Bluestone is the name given to several stones (1 a feldspathic sandstone in the U It was created when sand was deposited in a giant delta which once covered the area. Unlike granite and slate, untreated bluestone does not become slippery when wet. Kingston shaped and shipped most of the bluestone made to create the sidewalks of New York City. Cement deposits were found throughout the valley, and in 1844 quarrying began in the "Ponchockie" section of Rondout.

Large brick making factories were also located close to this shipping hub [4] [5]. Rondout’s central location as a shipping hub ended with the advent of railroads which ran through Rondout and Kingston but could transport their loads through the town without stopping. Today the CSX freight rail company runs through Kingston with little impact, economical or otherwise. Today, Ponchockie is a quiet neighborhood in Kingston of 100 year old affordable houses and the brick yard is scheduled for development into luxury riverside houses [6].
