| The Croton Heights Community
Association is dedicated to the preservation and
enhancement of the Croton Heights community. The
Association was formed in1942 both to manage
community-wide needs, such as road maintenance, and tend
to the special character of the community whose members
sought a certain independence in rustic yet historic
environs. While it no longer maintains the roads, the
Association undertakes a number of activities from the
social (holiday dinner, summer picnic), to the economic
(oil and propane coops) to the preservationist
(committee to oversee development in the area). The area
included within the Association consists of over a
100 homes, all on Croton Heights Road or dead-end roads
branching off of it. Occupying
the "heights" above the Croton Reservoir, it has an
eclectic mix of houses from pre-Revolutionary farm
homes, to those built by hand in the 1920s and
subsequently expanded to modern dwellings. |
