HUDSON VALLEY RUINS

DEMO ALERT

Hudson Valley Ruins provides a record of historic and distinctive architecture threatened by development, vandals, and time and exposure to the elements. We hope this website will be a catalyst for efforts to save the neglected historic structures of the Hudson Valley region of New York State. Through education and public-awareness, the buildings contained herein may yet see another day. If we can't save the mansions, churches, factories, and mills, then at least we've preserved them on film. Along the way you will also find examples of buildings that have been restored.
The Appeal of Ruins
