Beacon

Also known as: Beacon, NY, Beacon, New York

A small Hudson River city of ~14,000 in Dutchess County, NY, on the east bank at the foot of Mount Beacon — the northern gateway to the Hudson Highlands. Beacon's Main Street, restored over the past two decades alongside the opening of Dia:Beacon (2003), holds one of the densest concentrations of independent galleries, makers, and wellness studios in the Hudson Valley. The directory's Beacon yoga anchor is beBhakti Yoga Center on Catherine Street.

What this is

Beacon is a small Hudson River city on the east bank, at the foot of [[hudson-highlands-state-park|Mount Beacon]] (1,610 ft, the highest of the [[hudson-highlands|Hudson Highlands]]). The city was an industrial-and-mill town through most of the 20th century; the 2003 opening of Dia:Beacon in the former Nabisco printing plant catalyzed Main Street’s revival into one of the Hudson Valley’s densest small-city wellness, gallery, and maker corridors.
