Detailed Property Info
The Village of Athens in Greene County provides the setting for sixteen lushly
wooded acres with 701' of waterfront on the Hudson River. The property is
situated just north of the Village proper, bounded by a New York State
Freshwater Wetland to the south, New York State Route 385 to the west, Brick Row
Road/Extension to the north and the Hudson River to the east.
Access to the Athens property by land is provided via Exit 21B of Interstate 87
to Star Route 385 to Brick Row Extension. The Athens property can also be easily
accessed by water via Hager's Harbor dock located adjacent to the north property
line.
Sloping gradually towards the River, the Athens property is heavily wooded, with
the exception of a small pond located near the river, close to the southern
property line and adjacent to the New York State Freshwater Wetland. The pond
demonstrates the rich biotic community along the banks of the Hudson River,
including numerous frog, birds and aquatic plants.
Currently zoned Open Space/Conservation under the Village of Athens Zoning
Ordinance, the location of the Athens property relative to other valuable
environmental and recreational assets further supports continued preservation of
this valuable resource along the Hudson River.
Just south of the Athens property, the State of New York recently made
significant improvements to the boat launch, increasing public access and use of
the area for both boating access to the Hudson as well as fishing opportunities
on the overflow creek from Sleepy Hollow Creek.
----------
Across the creek from the boat launch is a designated wetland under public
control. The Village has constructed a ball field, walking trail and general
recreational space upland of the wetland.
The Athens property offers undeveloped open space and ecological resources, as
well as scenic views of the east side of the Hudson in Columbia County. The view
of the Athens property from the River is unspoiled, an important feature given
the industrial development and aging facilities located at the waterfront within
the Village of Athens proper.
An opportunity exists to connect the improved State boat launch with the wetland area. The village's recreational area and the listed 16 acre Athens parcel, to create a continuous district to resource conservation, open apace and recreation.
