Henrietta is a town in Monroe County, New York, United States and a suburb of Rochester. The population of Henrietta is 42,581, according to the 2010 U.S. Census. Henrietta is home to the Rochester Institute of Technology and to one of the largest retail shopping districts in Monroe County.

History

The first residents of the Henrietta area were Native Americans. Although no evidence of Native American villages has been found in Henrietta, numerous artifacts and skeletons have been unearthed by farmers and archeologists over the past 200 years.[2]

With the end of the American Revolution, several resident Native American tribes that had sided with the British were forced to leave Upstate New York. As a result, land became available for European settlers in the Finger Lakes and Genesee Valley regions.

The town of Henrietta was named after Henrietta Laura Pulteney, Countess of Bath in Great Britain.[3] Her father Sir William Pulteney, 5th Baronet, was a major British investor from the Pulteney Association who owned the land that became the town. Henrietta Pulteney never visited the town named after her. Pulteney eventually sold his holdings, which then passed through the hands of several American investors.[5]

The first European settlers were Major Ezekiel Scott and his wife Catherine, who purchased 900 acres in 1790. Most of the original arriving settlers were English.[5]

Two villages, East and West Henrietta, arose in the area, both part of the Town of Pittsford. In 1818, a dispute about the recording of deeds prompted residents of the two villages to secede from Pittsford and form the town of Henrietta.[4]

With the opening of the Erie Canal in 1825, Henrietta farmers gained access to the New York City market for their crops and the town prospered. In 1826, residents opened the Monroe Academy, the first incorporated school in Monroe County.

With the end of World War II. the population of Henrietta went from 3,000 to approximately 14,000 in ten years as people started moving to the Rochester suburbs. The building of the New York Thruway through Henrietta in the early 1950s made the town more desirable for commercial development. In 1968, the Rochester Institute of Technology moved from the city to a new campus in Henrietta. That same year, the National Technical Institute for the Deaf opened in Henrietta.

In the 1980s, with the completion of Interstate 390 and the building of Marketplace Mall, Henrietta developed into one of the major retail shopping destinations in Monroe County.

The Andrew Short House, Antoinette Louisa Brown Blackwell Childhood Home, and Tinker Cobblestone Farmstead are listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[5][6]

Geography

The western town line of Henrietta is defined by the Genesee River. On the west side of the river are the towns of Chili and Wheatland. To the north of Henrietta is the town of Brighton, to the east are the towns of Pittsford and Mendon, New York, and to the south is the town of Rush. Henrietta is south of the City of Rochester, but does not share a border with the city.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|35.6|sqmi|km2}}, of which, {{convert|35.4|sqmi|km2}} of it is land and {{convert|0.2|sqmi|km2}} of it (0.53%) is water.

Both the New York Thruway (Interstate 90) and Interstate 390 run through Henrietta. A short section of the Erie Canal passes through the northeastern side of the town.

Government

Henrietta's town government consists of a town supervisor and four town board members. Town board meetings are scheduled on the first and third Wednesday of each month (except July and August when they are scheduled on the third Wednesday only). All town board meetings begin at 7:00 PM EST at the Henrietta Town Hall.

Other boards and commissions in Henrietta include the Zoning Board, Planning Board, Conservation Board, Youth Board, Recreation Commission, Historic Site Committee, Assessment Board, and Library Board.

Communities and locations in Henrietta

The East Henrietta hamlet is located at the crossroads of East Henrietta (US Route 15A) and Lehigh Station Roads (County Route 253). It was the site of the Monroe Academy, the first secondary school in the county, which later became Rush-Henrietta Senior High School.

It has since been relocated to a residential neighborhood near Stone Road in Henrietta.
