History
Before being established as Crystal Beach, the land was originally owned by the Washburn family, who maintained a large grape farm. In 1929, Paul Ritchie, owner of Finger Lakes Company, purchased the farm and the subsequent land. He began planning a large housing development in the area. The company built a grid of roads, and dedicated land for neighborhood parks. 965 30 ft x 80 ft lots were built for housing. Midway through building the new cottages at Crystal Beach, the Great Depression hit, and all development seized. Many of the homes built after the Great Depression were built by non-professional individuals, which is why we see a large variation of style and quality of homes in the Crystal Beach area today.
In 2016, the mean price of all housing units was $267,468.
