Pine Bush is a quaint village within the Town of Crawford NY. Settled in the mid to late 1700's, the Town of Crawford was incorporated in 1832. The village of Pine Bush is the heart of the town. The picture below is a historical postcard view of a portion of Main Street. If you come to Pine Bush you will see many of the same buildings today, as a matter of fact my office is the building on the right. The village has done much to bring back that historic feeling by installing antique styled lighting along Main Street.
Located at the intersection of Route 302 and Route 52, Pine Bush is about 10 miles from Route 17 (future I-86) exit 119. It is about 68 miles from New York City. The village center has a wide variety of stores, quaint restaurants, pizza and fast food places, ice cream stands, a Bed and Breakfast, a motel, several small gyms, and gas stations. There is the post office, the Town of Crawford Public Library, the Town of Crawford Historical Society, and more located on Main St (Route 52) or nearby. Saturday's bring a Farmer's Market to the village with special events, artists, and great fresh produce. Special events are staged in and around the village year round including a Spring Clean up, Relay for Life, Harvest Festival, a Halloween Night like you have never seen before, Holiday Tree Lighting, and so much more. This is a community that cares and everyone works together making it a great place to live and work.
Four of the schools of the Pine Bush Central School District are located in Pine Bush. There are two elementary schools, a middle school, and the high school. The Boys and Girls Club is active in after school programs and run the Town Day Camp every summer which provides summer entertainment for the area children. There are also active youth sporting programs, Boy and Girl Scouting programs, 4- H units, and many other opportunities for young people.
