About Hudson Falls:
The village was founded in a land patent granted to James Bradshaw and his associates May 1762 as Baker's Falls. In 1810 it was incorporated as the Village of Sandy Hill. The village assumed its current name in 1910. Stone quarried in Hudson Falls was used to construct the Bennington Battle Monument and the Brooklyn Bridge; the site of the quarry is now occupied by the Washington-Saratoga-Warren-Hamilton-Essex Board of Cooperative Educational Services.
Townsend Harris, the United States' first consul-general to Japan, was born in Hudson Falls.
Amtrak provides service to Hudson Falls at the station in nearby Fort Edward, operating its Adirondack daily in both directions between Montreal and New York City. Amtrak has designated the stop as Fort Edward-Glens Falls.
In the first week of September around Friday-Saturday, every year there is a carnival (celebration) to remember the old town name. The carnival is referred to as "Sandy Hill Days" and is hosted at the Hudson Falls Kindergarten Center near the KoC (Knights Of Columbus) where there is also a flea market.
