Hastings Prototype House, Historic house in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York, United States.

The Hastings Prototype House features prefabricated concrete panels for walls and floors, along with a distinctive bowl-shaped roof atop a cubical steel frame structure.

The house, designed by architect Charles Horn in the 1930s, incorporated the first gas-fired heating system installed in Westchester County and earned recognition at the 1939 World's Fair.

The residence stands as an early example of Moderne architectural style, reflecting innovative construction methods and residential designs during the Great Depression era.

Located at the intersection of Farragut Parkway and High Street, the property includes both the main house and a garage on a half-acre lot sloping westward.

The experimental dwelling features patented precast concrete panels and was part of a larger planned development that intended to extend similar construction methods to Florida.
