Greene County NY Economy

In the mountains, several communities developed as tanning sites, utilizing the now depleted stock of hemlock forest. By the mid-nineteenth century Greene County real estate was becoming a fashionable resort area catering to the upper class. It was marked by competition between the Catskill Mountain House and Hotel Kaaterskill for the tourist trade.
