Delaney Hotel, Greek Revival hotel in Hoosick, US
The Delaney Hotel is a Greek Revival hotel in Hoosick, New York, located at the intersection of NY Routes 22 and 67 with classical columns and symmetrical design elements. The property sits on roughly 1.5 acres and has been extensively renovated while preserving its original architectural features and interior details.
Built around 1850 by Nairn Burgess, the hotel served as a stagecoach and railroad stop during the industrial development of the region. It welcomed factory workers and travelers who passed through the area as transportation networks expanded.
The building keeps its original walnut banister and displays historical posters from its vaudeville period, showing how rural communities entertained themselves in the 1800s. Visitors can see how this place once brought performers and audiences together during a time when such hotels were important cultural stops.
The hotel now operates as a bed and breakfast, allowing visitors to stay overnight in a well-restored historical building. Its location at the intersection of two main roads makes it easy to find and convenient for those exploring the area.
The building faced demolition in the 1980s but was saved through community preservation efforts and gained National Register of Historic Places status in 1995. This rescue allowed an important piece of rural railroad and architectural history to survive for future visitors to experience.
