WELCOME TO DONGAN HILLS COLONY

WELCOME TO DONGAN HILLS COLONY

The colony is located above Richmond Road and borders Todt Hill.

The "hills" alluded to in the name are actually the eastern ridge of Todt Hill.

There is a section of Dongan Hills that actually contain large hills. This portion of the neighborhood is called the Dongan Hills Colony.

Driving through Dongan Hills Colony you will find older and newer homes mixed in on its hilly tree lined blocks. Million dollar homes adorn many of these blocks.
Shopping and transportation is close by on Richmond Road. There is the Dongan Hill Library, and it is home to the FDNY Engine Company 159 and Satellite 5.

Dongan Hills was one of the first neighboods to witness a upsurge in home construction after World War ll, as many small one family homes were built there during the 1950s. The city also built a public housing project in the community known as the General Berry Houses. Population growth accelerated in the area when the Verranzano Bridge was opened in November 1964.

Recent arrivals from Brooklyn have overwhelmed the descendents of the original

residents, and now form a majority of the neighborhood's population.

It is one of the most beautiful neighborhoods on Staten Island .
