History

Orchard Park was started by Quaker settlers in 1803. The village, formerly called “Potters Corners”, was incorporated in 1921. The name change to “Orchard Park” was suggested by a local schoolteacher. Several years later, the town also changed its name from “East Hamburg” to “Orchard Park”, after the village.

Orchard Park was a stop on the Underground Railroad, as fugitive slaves stopped over at Quaker-run homes on their way north to Black Rock in Buffalo from Collins.

U.S. Route 20A (Quaker Street) passes through the village, intersecting with New York State Route 240/New York State Route 277. At this intersection the street name of Route 277 changes from Orchard Park Road (which leads toward the city) to N/S Buffalo Street (which leads into the village). This causes people in the village to refer to Route 277 as Buffalo Street and people that aren’t from the village to call it Orchard Park Road. This intersection is known locally as the “Four Corners” and is the center of the village.
