Downtown Ossining Historic District
Downtown Ossining Historic District, Historic district in central Ossining, New York.
The Downtown Ossining Historic District covers 25.8 acres with commercial buildings, banks, churches, and civic structures from the late 19th century.
The district emerged after two major events: the construction of the Croton Aqueduct and fires in the 1870s that required extensive rebuilding efforts.
The area reflects diverse architectural influences through structures designed by notable architects Robert W. Gibson, Isaac G. Perry, and James Gamble Rogers.
Regular guided tours depart from the village hall, offering visitors detailed information about the architectural and historical elements of the district.
Highland Cottage stands as Westchester County's first concrete house, representing early innovations in residential construction techniques within the district.
