Philipse Manor Hall State Historic Site
Philipse Manor Hall State Historic Site is a historic house museum located in the Getty Square neighborhood of Yonkers. Originally the family seat of Philipse Manor, it is Westchester County’s oldest standing building. It is located at Warburton Avenue and Dock Street. The southwest corner, the oldest part of the structure, was built around 1682 by Dutch-born merchant and trader Frederick Philipse, a son-in-law of Stephanus Van Cortlandt, who had amassed a 52,000-acre estate along the Hudson River that encompassed the entire modern city of Yonkers and much of lower Westchester County. -from Wikipedia
