History

The prospect of finding work with the Pennsylvania Coal Company attracted many to Port Ewen. Port Ewen was served by the West Shore Railroad, which shipped, among other freight, high explosives produced by the Nitro Powder Company in Kingston.

Before the opening of the Kingston–Port Ewen Suspension Bridge in 1921, those wishing to cross Rondout Creek would have to take the Skillypot, a chain ferry that ran to Sleightsburgh, and one which was noted for its sporadic service.
