William E. Dodge House, 1863 Gothic Revival residence in Riverdale, The Bronx, US.

The William E. Dodge House stands as a masonry structure with two and a half stories, featuring Gothic Revival architectural elements and stone construction.

James Renwick Jr designed this summer residence in 1863 for copper industrialist William E. Dodge Jr, who later converted it into a year-round home in 1892.

The property became the Greyston Conference Center of Teachers College, Columbia University through a formal dedication ceremony on May 27, 1963.

Located at 690 West 247th Street in the Hudson Hill section, the property received National Register of Historic Places designation in 1977.

The residence maintains its original architectural features on less than one acre of land, demonstrating nineteenth-century domestic design principles.
