NYFE Summary
The family farm once covered hundreds of acres. After the city acquired the property in 1928, the house became a clubhouse and a public golf course opened the following year. The grounds connect the building’s farming past with a later public recreation use.
A broad porch wraps around two sides, with a railing above its roof. Small attic windows run beneath the eaves, while tall brick chimneys rise above the main roof. The restored house still serves the golf course.
