25 Historic Hudson Valley Estates and Mansions With Remarkable Stories

The Hudson Valley has been home to some of New York’s most remarkable country houses for more than three centuries. Long before the Gilded Age brought railroad fortunes, elaborate gardens, and grand weekend retreats to the river, colonial landowning families were establishing farms, trading centers, and estates along its banks. The Hudson was both a transportation route and a source of wealth. Land, agriculture, river commerce, and the labor of enslaved people and tenant farmers helped sustain the households that later became known for their imposing mansions.

NYC loses more than half of pied-a-terre tax appeals, threatening projected revenue pot: ‘Out the window’

More than half of the thousands of homeowners who have already appealed the city’s new pied-à-terre tax have won their cases, threatening the levy’s much ballyhooed revenue potential. When Big Apple Mayor Zohran Mamdani and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced the controversial tax on luxury second homes — or co-ops worth more than $1 million and houses over $5 million — in the city, they claimed the policy would generate $500 million-plus in revenue. But the city Department of Finance told The Post that as of Friday morning, exemption applications had hit 10,000, with a whopping 5,700 approved — and the lawsuits and exemption requests are still coming in fast and furiously. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani announces a new pied-a-terre tax for thousands of homeowners in a video posted to Twitter in April — and has been taking heat over it ever since. X/SaraEisen “I think the bigger fiscal question is whether the city’s $500 million revenue estimate was realistic in the first place,” said plaintiff lawyer Ben Williams of Rosenberg & Ellis. “Once primary residences are removed and overstated market values are challenged, we may find that the amount actually collectible is significantly less than projected,”

Why Rockland County Residents Should Review Their New York Estate Plan Every Few Years

An estate plan is a set of separate documents, and each one can fall out of date on its own schedule. For families in New City, Nyack, Pearl River, and Suffern, I review plans document by document, because a sound will can sit beside a power of attorney that no longer works. I recommend a review every three to five years, and after any marriage, divorce, birth, death, move, or major purchase.
