hamlet of Howells as it crosses into the town of Wallkill. After a large bend to the southeast, the route junctions with CR 18 and begins running southeast along the residential strip northwest of the city of Middletown. Passing Monhagen Lake, NY 211 crosses southeast into the hamlet of Pilgrim Corners, where it junctions with CR 78 and soon enters the city of Middletown. Crossing over a railroad spur, NY 211 enters the city along Monhagen Avenue, a two-lane commercial/residential street in the northwestern section of the city. Several blocks into the city, NY 211 reaches a junction with NY 17M (West Main Street). Paralleling the abandoned Erie Railroad main line through Middletown, NY 211 and NY 17M, now concurrent, turn east along West Main, bypassing the center of Middletown and soon changing names to Wickham Avenue when Main Street forks to the southeast. Bending northeast, NY 17M and NY 211 reach a junction with North Street, where NY 17M turns north onto North while NY 211 continues east on Wickham. NY 211 remains a two-lane commercial street through East Middletown, soon leaving the city for the town of Wallkill. Now without the Wickham Street moniker, the route expands to four lanes through Wallkill, becoming a long commercial boulevard through the town. Bending eastward near Silver Lake, the route gains a center median dividing the two directions before expanding to six lanes. At the junction with the northern terminus of CR 92 (Dunning Road), NY 211 turns northeast and enters exit 120, a partial cloverleaf interchange with NY 17 (Future I-86) (the Quickway). The route then turns northeast and crosses the entrance to Galleria at Crystal Run, reaching a junction with Galleria Drive, which connects to the mall and the Middletown–Town of Wallkill Metro-North station. Reduced back to four lanes, NY 211 leaves the mall area and loses the center divide. Passing through the hamlet of Scotchtown, NY 211 crosses a junction with the southern terminus of CR 53 (Blumel Road). Continuing east, the route reduces to two lanes through Wallkill, crossing into the hamlet of Michigan Corners, where it begins to parallel I-84 and the Port Jervis Line. Becoming a two-lane woods road through Wallkill, the route soon enters a wide flat lowlands in the area of Camp Orange Road. The route passes a back entrance to a rest area on I-84 at Bull Road, paralleling the Mannayunk Kill
