History:


NY 156's original alignment west of Altamont followed present day NY 146. The two routes would swap alignments in 1940. The eastern end originally extended through Voorheesville via NY 85A to NY 85 in New Scotland. The overlap was eliminated in the 1950s.

state map showing the pre-1940 alignments for
NY 146 and NY 156 west of Altamont.
