In the late 1620s, the Dutch immigrants to what was later to become the United States began a settlement on the shores of the Hudson River with a fort being built in 1669. That development has grown into what is now East Greenbush, NY, a small town in upstate New York in the suburbs of Albany, the state Capitol. During the War of 1812, the area of East Greenbush behind the Town Hall was the site of a huge cantonment, occupied by over 5,000 soldiers, which included a hospital, barracks and an arsenal. Headworks International is proud to be part of this historic town's continuous focus on maintaining the water quality in the region.
