Description:
Whiteman, J.A.. YONKERS (YONKERS: THE TERRACE CITY). New York: J.A. Whiteman, 1901. First Thus. Oblong 12mo. Stapled Pictorial Wrappers. Civic History. Good. np (48pp), 30 b&w illustrations + cover.

Its jaunty text details a glowing history and projection of growth for "The Terrace City" nestled between the Bronx and Hudson rivers, supplemented with photographs documenting its many architectural achievements. Included are commissioned turn of the century views of the Park Hill Country Club, Hotel Wynnstay, Hollywood Inn, Hotel Hendrik Hudson, Statesman Building, Culver's Department Store, Getty Square, Amackassin Club, Van Cortlandt Manor House, "Greystone Residence", "Duncraggan"… Read More
