Carnwath Farms Historic Site & Park is a “99.7 acre estate overlooking the majestic Hudson River and home to an 1850 Italianate Style manor, 1873 Carriage House, 1870 Ice House, Reese Cultural Center (Home to the Sports Museum of Dutchess County), chapel, and the future home of the town of Wappinger Museum & Visitor Center.�[1]

Carnwath Farms June 2019

HISTORY OF SITE First conceived in 1850 as the country estate of William Henry Willis, the Carnwath Manor was designed as an Italianate Villa style mansion. The Willis family later became related to the Reese and Mesier families. He sold the estate after the Civil War when his son died of tuberculosis in the manor, and then built Obercreek. General George Barclay was the second resident of the estate. Barclay was a general for the Union Army during the Civil War. In 1870 Mr. Francis Robert Rives who married the daughter of General Barclay, Matilda, purchased Carnwath Farms. Rives was the son of William C. Rives, US Senator and Ambassador to France. The formal Italianate appearance was changed to a less formal look which was preferred by late 19th century architects.

Written by Joey Cavaccini, Town of Wappinger Historian

The east servant’s wing, large rounded additions, and south wing kitchen were added. In 1873, the impressive three story French style Carriage House, and romantic style Ice House were constructed by Francis Rives as well. Rives operated Carnwath as a gentleman’s farm also building a large cow barn, and horse/hay barn (No longer standing) that were operated by Rives himself and the over 100 farmhands. In 1891, Francis Robert Rives died leaving his $3 million Carnwath Estate to his son Reginald.

HISTORY OF SITE Reginald was president of the Coaching Club, a society formed by horsemen in 1875 to promote coaching as a gentleman’s sport, and compiled the book, “The Coaching Club, Its History and Activities.” He served as secretary-treasurer of the National Horse Show from 1925 to 1934 and was a prominent judge of harness horses in this country and abroad. For nine years he was whip of the public coach “Pioneer” and he once said that he was never more than forty-five seconds late on the 21-mile trip from New York City to Ardsley, NY.

Written by Joey Cavaccini, Town of Wappinger Historian

In 1914, the property was purchased by a New York attorney named Isaac Untermeyer who was famous for defending William Boss Tweed. In 1925 the Order of the Brothers of Hermits of Saint Augustine, a Catholic friary, purchased the property (known as Mother of the Good Counsel Novitiate) and built the administration building in 1927 as a dormitory, chapel, and living/eating area. The large present Chapel was built in 1950 and the Frances Reese Cultural Center in 1958. In 1984, the Order of the Brothers of Hermits sold 99.7 acres (what is now left of the original 200+ acre Carnwath) to Greystone House Incorporated, later Greystone Programs Incorporated. Greystone specialized in severely handicapped individuals. The Town of Wappinger purchased the property in 1999 for the purpose of preserving green space and the rich history of Wappinger. It became open to the public in 2000 as the “Greystone Estate” a public park. In 2002-2007, a master plan was put together by an Advisory Committee to come up with future uses for the estate. In 2003, the Town of Wappinger officially dedicated the “Greystone Estate” which included tours of the Carnwath Manor, Chapel, Dormitory, and Carriage House; and renaming the property to its original name, “Carnwath Farms.” In 2005, the Town of Wappinger officially dedicated the dormitory building of Carnwath Farms as the Frances Reese Cultural Center and welcomed its first tenant, the Sports Museum of Dutchess County. The luncheon raised over $30,000 for the restoration of the Carnwath Manor and hosted Hillary Clinton as its guest of honor.

Interior Design Concept

Workplace Schematic Design January 2019

We intend to use a 5 to 9 year plan for the renovation of a section of the Frances Reese Cultural Center for the growth and development of the New York Historic Sites Alliance and Carnwath Farms Historic Site and Park.

We believe our renovations in the south side of the building will spark and inspire the revival of the entire site. Our goal is to design a community workplace which simplifies lives by sharing resources and minimizing impact upon the environment. Members from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds and social motives will come together to work and collaborate in harmony. The design will promote a sense of place and community by providing opportunities to interact with the site and the NYHSA network from within and outside the community.

PHASE 01:

Remove east-side partitions to create open workspace and break area; expose concrete columns and industrial ceilings; repair and painting of area

PHASE 02:

Remove north-west side partitions to create break area; repair and painting of area; furnish board room

( P O T E N T I A L ) P H A S E 0 3 : Remove pantry partitions; ADA-compliant bathroom renovation; re-finish all concrete floors P H A S E 0 4 : Remove kitchen walls and renovate; lighting and heating/air conditioning updates P H A S E 0 5 : Switch board room and break area (remove existing glass wall and add new glass wall to north-east side)
