Created in 1850 by a tailor named John Stevens, who organized an association of about 1,000 New York City working people who were seeking to live in a community outside of New York City. Together, the group purchased five farms, divided the land into quarter-acre lots and build modest homes, schools and businesses soon followed. Today the four square mile city has Westchester's most cosmopolitan population featuring representatives from nearly 100 nations.
Of the many famous residents to have called Mount Vernon home are James Bailey of Barnum and Bailey fame, Denzel Washington, Sidney Poitier and rapper Heavy D. The city's most famous one-time resident may be Lillian Vernon who adopted the name when she launched her mail order empire.
The city's downtown district is being revitalized with condos and big box stores and many organizations continue to spruce up the various neighborhoods. There is a thriving artist community as evident in the Arts on Third Festival.
