Lewisboro: Did You Know?
LEWISBORO, N.Y. The sleepy little collection of hamlets known as Lewisboro has some interesting facts you may not know: Wild Oaks Village was designed for a lifetime.
- Wild Oaks Village was designed for a lifetime.Wild Oaks Village in Goldens Bridge was designed for progressive living, meaning a young couple could start out in a garden apartment, move to a town house and eventually on to a single-family home, as their income and family increased.
- Waccabuc has a privately owned church. The Mead Memorial Chapel on Mead Street was designed by Hobart B. Upjohn, the architect of Geneva’s Hobart & William Smith Colleges and St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Katonah. Built in 1905-07, the chapel is an outstanding example of late Gothic Revival religious architecture. It is one of the county’s last remaining churches still owned privately.
- Goldens Bridge has a unique bridge. Bridge L-158, off Route 22 just south of Route 138, is the only surviving double-section Whipple truss railroad bridge in New York State. It was erected near Kingston in 1883 and moved to Goldens Bridge in 1904. The bridge’s design represents an important development in 19th century engineering technology.
- Onatru is a nonce-word. Onatru Farm on Elmwood Road got its name in 1905 because its new owner, Edward Lane, had always wanted to live “on a true farm.”
