Orangetown’s Comprehensive Plan
Piermont
Piermont is a village incorporated in 1847 in Rockland County, New York, United States. Piermont is in the town of Orangetown, located north of the hamlet of Palisades, east of Sparkill, and south of Grand View-on-Hudson, on the west bank of the Hudson River. The population was 2,510 at the 2010 census.[4] Woody Allen set The Purple Rose of Cairo, a fictional film within The Purple Rose of Cairo (1984) in Piermont.
The village's name, in earlier years known as Tappan Landing, was given by Dr. Eleazar Lord, author, educator, deacon of the First Protestant Dutch Church and first president of the Erie Railroad. It was derived by combining a local natural feature – Tallman Mountain – and the most prominent man-made feature of the village – the long Erie Railroad pier.

Empire Hose raising funds for past member Thomas Pomplin
Piermont’s Empire Hose Company #1 is raising funds for a memorial for their past member Thomas Pomplin and awareness to recognize his 1854 death as the first Line of Duty Death in the fire service in Rockland county.
Research done by Ex Chief Dan Goswick has shown that his untimely passing was directly as a result of his response to a fire in Nyack, but his death was never recorded as a LODD. They are working to fix that by getting this hero from our history officially recognized, and building a memorial to his selfless sacrifice that his descendants can visit.
Your donation will help give the Piermont Empire Hose Company #1 and FF Thomas Pomplin, and his ultimate sacrifice, the long overdue recognition it deserves.
