DISCOVER BEACON, NEW YORK
THE ONLY THING MORE ABUNDANT THAN OLD BRICK IN THIS HISTORIC, POST-INDUSTRIAL CITY? A SPIRIT AND SENSE OF PLACE THAT BELONG UNIQUELY TO BEACON.
Nestled along the banks of the Hudson River with the Hudson Highlands at every horizon, it’s obvious this city has no shortage of green spaces and nature to indulge in.
But look closer through the streets lined with revitalized 19th century factories and buildings, and you’ll find a vibrant arts and culture scene brimming with galleries, breweries, boutiques, and events to please tourist and resident alike.
It’s here that you’ll experience the eclectic group of people that call Beacon home, and give it its reputation as one of the warmest, most welcoming communities around.
Visiting Beacon is an easy day trip from NYC (just over an hour train ride from Grand Central)—and an even easier permanent move, once you explore all it has to offer.
Here at Scenic Beacon, every property is influenced by the charm, history, and singularity of this special city. Our properties were designed to retain and showcase the character of the city and make its ample offerings accessible every day.
