Sing Sing Correctional Facility is a maximum-security prison operated by the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision in the village of Ossining, New York. It is about 30 miles north of New York City on the east bank of the Hudson River. Sing Sing holds about 1,700 prisoners.
The name "Sing Sing" was derived from the Sintsink native American tribe from whom the land was purchased in 1685, and was formerly also the name of the village. In 1970, the name of the prison was changed to the "Ossining Correctional Facility," but it reverted to its original name in 1985. There are plans to convert the original 1825 cell block into a period museum.
