From my new Cultural Landscape series, a look at Untermeyer Park, Yonkers, NY (more to come).

Untermeyer Park, Yonkers

On the National Register of Historic Places this is the remnants of a grand estate with a 150 acre garden built by Samuel Untermeyer and left to the city of Yonkers.

Sorely in need of restoration the beautiful mosaics and statuary are in great need of repair.
