OSTRANDER

When Ostrander was laid out in 1852, the Short Line Branch of the CCC&I Railroad made the town tick. The entire business district was destroyed by fire in 1925, but the town was rebuilt within two years. Today Ostrander is a neat community-small, but active and concerned. Located in western Delaware County on Route 36, Ostrander has its own Business Association which sponsors Easter egg hunts and 4th of July celebrations for a community of about 400 people.
