Mount Vernon Hotel Museum & Garden
Description
The Mount Vernon Hotel Museum & Garden celebrates life in 19th-century New York. Built in 1799 as a carriage house for a wealthy merchant, the building was transformed several years later into the Mount Vernon Hotel, a day hotel, for visitors to New York's countryside. Modern-day visitors can explore its period rooms while learning about social history and material culture in the early days of the New Republic.
