INTRODUCTION
DISCOVER THE VALLEY’S BUSINESS ADVANTAGES
The Business Council of Westchester, the county’s business advocacy and mem- bership organization, is proud to present this annual guide. With the 2020 edition, we are introducing you to all that makes living in Westchester, Orange, Rockland, Putnam, and Dutchess Counties
so enjoyable.
We are happy to have the support of the Hudson Gateway Association of
REALTORS®, allowing us to develop a broader regional focus within this publication. Together, we invite you to step through the gateway to the breathtaking Hudson Valley area. I know firsthand about Westchester’s scenic beauty, its broad range of residential, education, and employment opportunities, and its many cultural, historical, and recreational opportunities, all of which make Westchester one of the premier places to live and work in the United States. Our diverse business presence has enriched the social and cultural fabric
of Westchester’s communities while contributing to
its economic strength. As you will see in this guide, there are also many great advantages to living in the neighboring counties of Orange, Rockland, Putnam, and Dutchess Counties.
The Business Council of Westchester’s more than 1,000 business and professional members extend a very warm welcome to the region.
Sincerely,
Dr. Marsha Gordon, President/CEO

ONE SOURCE FOR FULFILLING THE AMERICAN DREAM

far beyond our local borders. Now, existing and potential homeowners in our region have the ultimate home-searching experience available to them through a new Regional Multiple Listing Service, OneKey MLS, spanning 10 counties in the Hudson Valley and New York Metro area on HGAR.com.
OneKey was created when the Hudson Gateway Association of REALTORS® (HGAR) and the Long Island Board of REALTORS® merged their MLS systems to form a Regional Multiple Listing Service with 38,000 subscribers and more than 41,000 listings serving Manhattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Long Island, and the Hudson Valley.
Through OneKey, HGAR offers consumers one-stop shopping for rentals, co-ops, condos, townhomes, single- family homes, or vacant land. Whether you’re an empty nester considering a move to New York City, or a young family looking for suburban living, you now have the New York Metro area—and beyond—right at your fingertips.
From Montauk to Monticello or from Wall Street to Wallkill, we’ll help you find the home of your dreams. With more than 13,000 REALTORS®, HGAR also offers you dedicated real estate professionals who are recognized by both the New York State Association of REALTORS® and the National Association of REALTORS®.
