Beechmont (also known as Beechmont Knolls and Beechmont Woods) is an upscale residential community located in the northern end of New Rochelle in Westchester County, New York. Its boundaries are the town of Mamaroneck on the east, by Rochelle Heights on the south, by Huguenot Park on the west and by Forest Heights and Bayberry on the north. Beechmont is within the larger Wykagyl sub-section of New Rochelle, served by the 10804 zip-code. The United States Board on Geographic Names recognizes Beechmont as the official common name for the neighborhood, which it defines as a populated place existing within the incorporated City of New Rochelle.〔(USGS Geographic Names System - feature detail report )〕 ==History==
While commercial New Rochelle grew and prospered in the South End along the waterfront, the expansive northern portion of town remained farmland well into the 19th century. During the Revolutionary War, British and Hessian troops, en route to fight George Washington's soldiers in the Battle of White Plains, had been encamped along North Avenue in the satellite community of Middletown. Their commander, General William Howe, charted their course from his quarters on the farm of James Pugsley, a Quaker whose property stretched from the current campus of New Rochelle High School to the Long Island Sound shore. Around the turn of the 20th century, this farmland began to give way to residential development. Well-to-do businessmen built fine homes on spacious plots conveniently located just 45 minutes from midtown Manhattan by rail. Architects designed houses of comfort and elegance in a variety of historical styles with traditional appeal. Colonial Revival and Tudor and Elizabethan were favorites, along with the Spanish Colonial Revival and Neo-Classical Revival styles.〔(Beechmont Bugle - History I )〕
