adjacent 4-mile (6.4 km) section was added on August 15 of that year, extending state maintenance of the road west to CR 45 in
Woodstock. The portion of the highway east of CR 35 was added in two parts, the earliest of which became state-maintained on January 11, 1905, and extended from CR 35 to the Saugerties village limits. The section within the village was accepted into the state highway system 15 years later on July 30, 1920. State maintenance was extended northwest from CR 45 to Willow in the early to mid-1920s and southwest to Mount Tremper around the end of the decade. The Mount Tremper–Saugerties state highway did not have a posted route number until the

Construction included the building of three new steel bridges and numerous concrete bridges and culverts. Construction of the road involved selecting from various locations, and the one selected was from an old farm in the

would rate at a cost relevant to every 10 miles (16 km) traveled. However, tollgates would not be allowed to be constructed within the village of
Woodstock. On May 2, 1864, the state of New York approved the request of the company to construct a new toll gate on the right-of-way, located between Saugerties and the King's road (
447:(Tannery Brook Road) on the western edge of the community's commercial center. After another block, NY 212 curves east onto Mill Hill Road, which brings the route southeastward through the rest of the central business district. The line of businesses eventually comes to an end at an intersection with

and the house of Barnet
Eighmey. This new road would be no wider than 50 feet (15 m) wide with a 20-foot (6.1 m) roadbed. If they chose to build a ditch, the roadbed would only need to be 15 feet (4.6 m). The company would erect at least one toll gate and provisions for more, which

Modern NY 212 was added to the New York state highway system in stages over the course of the early 20th century. The first segment was acquired by the state on July 9, 1902, and extended for 5 miles (8.0 km) from the
Woodstock–Saugerties town line to CR 35 in Saugerties. An

The modern-day alignment of NY 212 dates to 1828, when the state of New York passed a bill authorizing the construction of the
Saugerties and Woodstock Turnpike Road Company. Passed on April 21, 1828, this new turnpike was to be constructed from the
478:(Glasco Turnpike) amongst a cluster of homes in the center of the community. From here, NY 212 runs northeast past intermittent stretches of homes separated by dense forests for 4 miles (6.4 km) before curving eastward at an intersection with
535:(Partition Street) in the village center. NY 212 ends here while NY 32 turns south to follow US 9W southbound on Partition Street. Northbound US 9W, meanwhile, continues northeast on Main Street toward the Hudson River.
