Edwin H. Armstrong House
Edwin H. Armstrong House, National Historic Landmark in Yonkers, United States
The Queen Anne style residence at 1032 Warburton Avenue featured a 125-foot radio antenna and a special turret room for radio experiments.
Edwin Armstrong developed revolutionary radio circuits and frequency modulation technology in this house between 1902 and 1923, transforming telecommunications worldwide.
The property represented early 20th-century scientific innovation, where Armstrong conducted experiments that formed the foundation of modern radio broadcasting systems.
The house maintained its original architectural elements until 1979, when development plans and subsequent neglect led to structural deterioration.
This National Historic Landmark designation was withdrawn in 1986, marking the only such removal for a New York State location.
