History

NY 221 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York to an alignment extending from NY 38 at Harford Mills to U.S. Route 11 in Marathon.[1][3] It was extended east to its current eastern terminus in Willet by the following year.[4] NY 221 was rerouted to follow its current alignment to the hamlet of Harford in the mid-1930s.[3][5] The former routing of NY 221 to Harford Mills was redesignated as NY 200 in the 1940s.[6][7]
