Nyack was incorporated as a Village as early as 1883, with the adjacent villages of South Nyack and Upper Nyack also incorporating around the same time. The majority of the Village’s land area is located in the Town of Orangetown, with a small western appendage located in the Town of Clarkstown.
There is good background for Nyack at Wikipedia.
