    From Wikipedia:
    Sleepy Hollow is a village in the town of Mount Pleasant, in Westchester County, New York, United States. The village is located on the east bank of the Hudson River, about 30 miles (48 km) north of New York City, and is served by the Philipse Manor stop on the Metro-North Hudson Line. To the south of Sleepy Hollow is the village of Tarrytown, and to the north and east are unincorporated parts of Mount Pleasant. The population of the village at the 2020 census was 9,986.
    Originally incorporated as North Tarrytown in the late 19th century, the village adopted its current name in 1996. The village is known internationally through "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow", an 1820 short story about the local area and its infamous specter, the Headless Horseman, written by Washington Irving, who lived in Tarrytown and is buried in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. Owing to this story, as well as the village's roots in early American history and folklore, Sleepy Hollow is considered by some to be one of the "most haunted places in the world". Despite this designation, Sleepy Hollow has also been called "the safest small 'city' [i.e., under 100,000 residents] in America".
    The village is home to the Philipsburg Manor House and the Old Dutch Church of Sleepy Hollow, as well as the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, where in addition to Irving, numerous other notable people are buried.

    I grew up on Beekman Avenue in N. Tarrytown from the late 50s through the mid 70s. Where you stopped at the first stop sign, my house was on the left. My parents owned a deli there and we lived in the back. Not sure if I'm happy or sad to say that not much has changed in the village! Only now where the GM factory was at the bottom of Beekman is now condos and the bridge is new.

      I was born at Phelps (in the middle of the previous century). How far is it from the places seen in this video?

    @ Time code 7:13, Mileage Mike is crossing the "Headless Horseman Bridge". This is where Ichabod Crane had to cross the Pocantico River to escape from the Horseman. The Sleepy Hollow Cemetery is up on the right after the Old Dutch Church.

    US 9 North. Broadway. At the US 9/NY 448 wye intersection there was a Rambler Car Dealership in the 60's. My father purchased a 1965 Rambler Ambassador station wagon there. At time 1:25 there is a small diner to the right. The Headless Horseman. Nice place to eat.

      Tappan Motors used to be at the fork in the road. Saw my first Dodge Super Bee there. Just a couple thousand dollars was list. Worth a bit more today.
