Description

Early in the 19th Century the Snedeker family's landing on the Hudson shore below came into use for local shipping. In 1845 the Snedekers established a shipyard with marine railway for repairing brickyard vessels and a dock for scheduled steamboats. The entire yard was demolished by fire in 1854 and abandoned. Later during the Conger family ownership it became known as Waldberg Landing. Erected Aug. 19, 1990 by the Historical Society of Rockland County. Sponsored by Charles E. Holbrook.
