The Homestead is located
at 49 Washington Avenue, Hastings-on-Hudson, NY. On May 17, 1973, both the New York and
National Historical Societies declared the Homestead an historical site. The Homestead is
listed in the "National Register of Historic Places in New York". |

The interior of the Homestead fully reflects
the atmosphere of the Hudson River Valley during the nineteenth century.
The Homestead is maintained in its
original condition. Original sketches and studies by Cropsey are displayed as are period
furniture, artwork, and décor of the nineteenth century.
It
is the goal of the Foundation that the Homestead is preserved for future generations to
enjoy and benefit from the rich historic background of the Hudson River Valley. |
