Former IBM Property to Become County Golf Course

NEW CASTLE, NY-Construction has commenced on a $7-million project to transform a 150-acre tract of land formerly owned by IBM into Westchester County's sixth public golf course--Hudson Hills.

NEW CASTLE, NY-Construction crews removed some brush and debris on a 150-acre tract of land formerly owned by IBM to make way for a new public golf course for Westchester County–Hudson Hills.

Westchester County Executive Andrew Spano and other local leaders were on hand on Thursday, Nov. 2 at the site to mark the beginning of construction of the golf course that is projected to cost $7 million. Westchester County purchased the property in 1997 from IBM for $3.64 million. The property is the site of the former Hudson Hills Country Club, which operated between 1926 and 1984.

“And what a course it will be,” says Spano. “It has been designed by top golf architects, with great sensitivity to preserving our environment. The course will be the jewel of our system, challenging, well-maintained and beautiful.”
