When You are passing through the Hudson River Valley, there is the historic Bannerman's Castle constructed by Francis Bannerman. He first purchased the island, from the Taft family as a site for extra munitions storage when the Bannerman's Armaments filled an entire city block in Brooklyn. Eventually, he moved his facility to the Castle when the city laws said he needed to find an addtional storage area outside of the NY City limits.
Later in life he and his wife Helen decided to build a castle in honor of his family's homeland. He built a Scottish castle and simple Residence in 1901. Later they used it as a summer residence where Helen covered the grounds in beautiful gardens.
Currently the castle is being restored, however they do have walking tours around the grounds which still have the same flowers and gardens that Helen Bannerman began planting in 1901.
