Real Estate in Grassy Point, NY:
A deepwater dock was built here by Dr. Lawrence Proudfoot in 1830, thereby making it an important freight and passengers shipping point used by the famed Chrystenah and Emeline into the twentieth century.
The brick industry was the area's greatest business. In the late 1800's and early 1900's brickyards extended along the Hudson River from Haverstraw Village, the "Brickmaking Capital of the World" to Grassy Point.
