Quackenbush House, Historic house in Albany, United States
The Quackenbush House is a historic residence in Albany featuring a distinctive double-pitched gable roof and stone construction typical of the colonial period. Today the structure houses a restaurant and pub on a city square downtown.
The house was built in 1736 as one of the earliest residential buildings in Albany. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 for its significance.
The building displays Dutch Colonial design that was common in Albany during the early 1700s, with the distinctive double-pitched roof reflecting the building traditions of settlers in the area.
The building sits on Quackenbush Square in downtown Albany and is easy to reach on foot from the nearby riverfront area. Inside you can eat and drink, making it accessible to visitors who want to experience the space.
The stone building survived centuries of urban change in Albany despite periods of neglect. Its transformation into a functioning restaurant demonstrates how colonial structures adapt to modern use.
