The picture shows a building called "The Castle" in Tarrytown, New York, a name that suggests the turreted, castle-like profile favored by many Hudson River estates in the nineteenth century. It was issued by the Detroit Publishing Company, which produced large numbers of scenic and architectural views around 1900 for travelers and armchair tourists. The caption details in this record are unverified, so the building's owners and exact history are not confirmed here. Even so, the image offers a useful glimpse of how the Hudson Valley was promoted as a destination at the turn of the twentieth century.
