25 Famous People You Didn’t Know Were From Newburgh, New York

The Orange County city rises from the western shore of the Hudson River, opposite Beacon, with streets and historic buildings that recall its years as a river port, manufacturing center, and important American crossroads. George Washington spent the final months of the Revolutionary War at headquarters in the Hasbrouck House, but the city’s story did not end with the Revolution. In the nineteenth century, its nurseries, businesses, churches, schools, and riverfront connections helped support a lively community whose influence traveled well beyond Orange County.
