The Curious Case of Nyack’s Strange Horn: A Mystery Solved!

Updated: Nov 4


When you move to a new place, you expect a few surprises. Maybe it’s the charming local cafes, or perhaps the picturesque views of the Hudson River. But what you don’t expect is to be serenaded by a perplexing horn that sounds like it’s straight out of a cartoon. Enter the curious case of the horn in Nyack, a delightful riddle that had me and Sonny scratching our heads.


When we first started hearing this mysterious sound, his immediate assumption was, “Ah, must be a train!” (A very optimistic take, considering the lack of train tracks nearby.) You see, Sonny isn’t exactly a public transportation aficionado. I, however, raised an eyebrow and thought, “Nope, no trains around here!” Determined to crack the case, I dove into a Google search.


Among the typical online chaos, I stumbled upon a forum where the educated masses suggested it could be a foghorn. One brave soul even mentioned, “It’s for the firehouse volunteers!” This prompted a skeptical exchange between Sonny and me. “Really? A firehouse alarm? Surely not!” But I couldn’t let it go.


With a spirit of scientific inquiry, I decided to monitor the horn’s schedule. My notes revealed an irregular pattern, like a whimsical tune that would pop up at the most unexpected times. But one fateful day, the pieces fell into place: each time that horn blared, we’d see fire trucks racing by, sirens wailing. The truth was undeniable: It was the firehouse alarm! Case closed!


So there you have it, folks. The mystery of the Nyack horn has been solved, and we can finally rest easy. Hopefully, we never need to hear that horn for its intended purpose, but if we do, at least now we know what it is.


In the end, this little adventure served as a reminder of the quirky charm that makes Nyack special. Who knew that a simple horn could spark such curiosity? Now, every time I hear that familiar sound, I can’t help but smile, knowing it’s just the firehouse making sure our community stays safe.
