It was built in 1914 to designs by Warren and Wetmore of New York City for the New York Central Railroad.","why_significant":"The nomination presents the station as a surviving example of Mission style public architecture in the mid-Hudson Valley, designed by a firm known for Grand Central Terminal. It also notes that the station served Franklin D. Roosevelt's hometown and received many distinguished visitors to the Roosevelt home, including the President's final funeral journey.","narrative":"Hyde Park Railroad Station is a small brick depot on River Road, overlooking the Hudson River near the mouth of Crum Elbow Creek. Built in 1914 for the New York Central Railroad, it was designed by the New York firm Warren and Wetmore, the architects of Grand Central Terminal. The building measures twenty-five by fifty-eight feet and holds a central waiting room flanked by a baggage room and washrooms. A low hipped tile roof with deep eaves and shaped rafter ends, a bracketed entrance canopy and round-arched openings give it a Mission style character. Inside, exposed brick and rafters, a clay tile floor, original benches and a marble water fountain survive. The station is valued as an example of academic architecture appearing outside a city, and for its link to Franklin D. Roosevelt. Visitors to the Roosevelt home, including Winston Churchill and King George and Queen Mary, arrived here, and the President's final journey to Hyde Park passed through it.","period_of_significance":"1900- (specific date 1914)","architect_builder":"Warren and Wetmore, New York City; Walsh Construction Company","architectural_style":"Mission style","criteria":[],"status_note":"Occupied by the Hudson Valley Railroad Society, which repaired the roof in 1975 and made other alterations through 1980.
