Tuxedo Park: The Historic Houses
Please join The Historical Society of Rockland County as we welcome Christian R. Sonne, Author of Tuxedo Park: The Historic Houses. Mr. Sonne authored the first and only book that examines the architecture of Tuxedo Park, a Hudson Valley community only forty miles north of Manhattan but normally not accessible to the public. This gated enclave is famous for its Gilded Age mansions designed by well-known architects. Mr. Sonne will provide a social history of this community from its founding in 1886 to 1945 using many of the beautiful James Bleecker photos from his book.
