Incorporated as a village in Ramapo in 1961, New Square was founded by Rabbi Jacob Joseph Twersky, and it takes its name from the Ukrainian town of Skvyra. Today, real estate rarely comes on the public market, and residents of the small yet densely populated Rockland County hamlet still maintain the traditions and beliefs of the village’s founders.
New Square is named after the Ukrainian town Skvyra, where the Skver Hasidic group originated.
