Peekskill, New York is located on the east side of the Hudson River. The city has approximately 22,000 residents as of the last census in 2000. Peekskill is 5.5 square miles, and offers scenic views of the Hudson River along the western border. The city is 41 miles from New York City by Metro North. Further, a short ride will take you to the United States Military Academy at West Point, where you can watch a college football game during the fall.

For several years, there has been a substantial effort to renovate many of the cultural highlights in Peekskill, including the magnificent Paramount Center For The Fine Arts, which was beautifully restored. Musical legends like B.B King, Chuck Berry, and Randy Newman have played the Paramount, and comedians Lewis Black and Jackie Mason have graced the stage in recent years. Across the street from the Paramount is the Peekskill Coffee House, where a wide variety of coffee and pastries are offered while local musical acts showcase their talents.

Adjacent to the Peekskill train station is a beautiful public park on the Hudson River with festivals galore in the summer months, highlighted by the annual July 4th fireworks display by the renowned Grucci Brothers.

Peekskill is the original home of former Governor George Pataki, a mayor of Peekskill for one term in the 1980's, and the basketball star Elton Brand, whose uniform hangs proudly in the Peekskill High School gymnasium.
