Historic neighborhoods

There are three historic neighborhoods and many gorgeous historic buildings in this city:

  • Chestnut Street Historic District | This is a smaller area of town than the other two historic neighborhoods, along a few blocks of West and East Chestnut Street.
  • Rondout-West Strand Historic Waterfront District | Featuring the waterfront onto the Roundout Creek and extending some ways uphill from there, this neighborhood comprises the historic downtown area of the city. It's full of 19th-century low-rise brick buildings that were related to industry and river shipping, as well as ornately decorated private houses and numerous churches. Quite a few of the churches and private houses have beautiful multi-colored tiled roofs. You could easily walk through this neighborhood for an hour or more, to see all the buildings and the waterfront.
  • Stockade Historic District | Called "Uptown" by local residents, this neighborhood, though smaller as an official historic neighborhood than Downtown, is in training by far the most extensive neighborhood and contains a larger quantity of ornate private houses than the historic downtown, plus the town green, which features grand, larger-than-life statues of important personages for the European settlement and development of New York (explorer Henry Hudson; Governor of New York DeWitt Clinton; and Director-General of New Netherlands, Peter Stuyvesant). This is also the neighborhood that contains the 17th-century Old Dutch Church, the 18th-century Senate House, which functioned as New York State's first capitol, and the early 19th-century Federal-style Ulster County Courthouse. Seeing all of the historic houses and other buildings in this neighborhood in a single day by foot is probably not possible, but walking down several streets is itself rewarding.

George J Smith House, Kingston, NY - George J. Smith House

  • Just For You | 375 Broadway☎ +1 845-853-8020 Opening Hours: Sun-Thu: 11:00 am - 10:00 pm; Friday 11:00 am - 4:00 pm; Saturday Closed Regular-menu tacos are no more than $8.50 for an order of 3; large plates go up to $12.50 This is a Oaxacan restaurant. They serve unusually savory food with multifaceted flavors and good ingredients and have specials every day. It's a small restaurant that also does takeout and delivery, the atmosphere is informal, and they have obvious pride in their work and sincere happiness in appreciation from customers. At the same time that their home-style food is deliciously authentic to their origins, they are health-conscious in a way that you may find atypical of taquerias. For example, their juices do not have added sugar and their chorizos are made from turkey. But don't be fooled into thinking this is some kind of bland spa cuisine: Their salsa packs a punch.
  • Rosita's 86 Rondout Landing☎ +1 845 339-5372 - Mexican/American cuisine. Waterfront dining, with outdoor patio.
