Coxsackie Square, Coxsackie, N.Y.
The Reed Street Historic District in Coxsackie is scenically located on the west bank of the Hudson River. The historic district has been known by several different names including Reed’s Landing, Coxsackie Middle Landing, Coxsackie Landing and now simply Coxsackie. Although it is hard to see today the Coxsackie village, like its sister cities of Athens and Catskill, was once a thriving river town, home to a variety of businesses including ship building, brick manufacturer, carriage manufacturer, printing press manufacturer, iron foundry, ice harvesting and a dock area for shipping agricultural products to New York City. Although Coxsackie is not quite the thriving commercial district it once was it still offers wonderful architecture and a glimpse into the history of the Hudson River valley. The small downtown Reed Street area is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The postcard was published by D. B. Smith located at Coxsackie, New York. The postmark shows that the card was mailed in 1915.
