Last Chance to See
A Photographic Exhibition
in the Victorian Era
View over 40 images of historic Yonkers, dating from 1860 through the end of the Victorian Era. This unique exhibit, designed by local historian Bob Piwinski, includes Yonkers streetscapes, train Stations, and the mansions of North Broadway, Warburton Avenue and Park Hill. It also includes one of the few known images of the Hendrick Hudson Hotel, designed by architect Bruce Price who also designed the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec. Dubbed “fireproof”, the Hendrick Hudson Hotel burnt to the ground just before it opened in 1901.
