About Huguenot
Huguenot is named for the French Protestants who settled there in the late 1600s and early 1700s, forming one of the first permanent settlements on Staten Island.
Huguenot is one of the South Shore neighborhoods in Staten Island Community District 3.
The Huguenot station opened in 1860 when the railroad was extended to Tottenville; it was first called Huguenot Park, and "Park" was dropped by 1971.
What This Means for Your Huguenot Chimney
Wind, rain and salt air
Near open water, wind drives rain sideways into the chimney and salt air corrodes metal caps and flashing faster. A sturdy cap and sound flashing keep water out of the flue and the masonry. Read: Does My Chimney Need a Cap?
