Crown Heights offers quick access to Poughkeepsie's major employers
Crown Heights is much more than a small hamlet south of Poughkeepsie – it’s home to many of that city’s largest employers. “For a lot of IBMers who worked in the Poughkeepsie plant, that was their starting home,” says Patricia Cannizzaro, an associate broker with Century 21 Alliance Realty Group who has sold several homes in Poughkeepsie. This community of more than 2,800 people is separated from the Hudson River by Poughkeepsie’s major IBM plant and waste management facilities, as well as Tilcon’s Trap Rock quarry. U.S. Route 9 connects Crown Heights’ residents to nearby jobs, a highway-side retail scene and the opportunities of the city.

Ranch-style homes and townhouses mix along Crown Heights' streets
Though Poughkeepsie’s southern outskirts may often be overlooked by homebuyers, they offer residents a quiet suburban atmosphere. “Those are neighborhoods where people start up their lives.” Cannizzaro says. Streets in Crown Heights branch off from U.S. Route 9 and are densely packed with houses. While these residential areas don’t have sidewalks, front yards often bloom with trees, hedges and gardens. Townhouses in the Casperkill Ridge complex sell for $320,000 to $370,000, while ranch-style homes go for $260,000 to $500,000. “They’re mostly single families with three bedrooms and one- or one-and-a-half bathrooms,” Cannizzaro says. “They’re trending exactly with the rest of the neighborhoods, which is stable. Prices are not rising anymore.” Thickets of trees provide sound barriers for homes along the highway. Crown Heights also has a CAP Index Crime Score of 2 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.

Route 9 offers diverse dining options and big-box retail
Crown Heights’ highway-side location offers easy access to both dining and retail. “There’s so many restaurants alongside Route 9 that you have so many choices,” Cannizzaro says. Tamarind Fine Dining offers an upscale setting for modern Indian cuisine. Slightly up the road, Indian Grocers and Bliss Kitchen sells imported South Asian goods like mangos and parathas and offers catering services. Crew Restaurant & Bar combines a traditional bar atmosphere with a diverse menu of New American dishes like steak frites and organic salmon. Down Route 9, the Poughkeepsie Galleria indoor shopping mall includes department stores like Macy’s and Target as well as the local Regal movie theater. Next door, The Shoppes at South Hills has a ShopRite and Lowe’s.

Golf and baseball clubs sit on both sides of the highway

The Poughkeepsie Cal Ripken Baseball League operates the clubhouse and holds practices every Tuesday and Wednesday evening. Across Route 9, Casperkill Golf Club – with its 18-hole golf course and softball field – is open to the public. Crown Heights’ Neptune Commerce Center offers spaces for indoor recreation like Crunch Fitness and Gravity Vault, a rock-climbing gym that frequently hosts birthday parties.
