Town of Rosendale, New York
The Town of Rosendale is located in Ulster County, New York. The town is centrally located in the county of Ulster. The area was first settled around 1685. The Rondout Creek flows north-east through the town near the center. The Delaware and Hudson Canal extends along the Rondout Creek.
The soil is chiefly a sandy loam a contribution to the town of Rosendale's reknown cement production in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Wallkill Valley R.R. and the Delaware and Hudson Canal gave the town easy transportation for its cement production. Many of our nation's most important landmarks, including the Brooklyn Bridge, the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty, Federal Hall, and one of the wings of the US Capital building were built using Rosendale cement.
In 2004 limited cement mining resumed in Rosendale, and Rosendale natural cement is again being produced. Edison Coatings, Inc. in Plainville, Connecticut, is producing natural cement for use in historic restoration projects.
