The Famous Culinary institute of America (CIA) - Tour the Culinary Institute of America, overlooking the Hudson River, in Hyde Park NY. The CIA is an American private college and culinary school specializing in culinary, baking, and pastry arts education. In 1897 the Jesuits subsequently constructed the present-day Roth Hall and other buildings, operating the property as the novitiate named St. Andrew-on-Hudson from 1903 to 1970. In 1970, the Culinary Institute of America purchased the property and moved its school there from New Haven, Connecticut. You will have a wonderful dinner prepared for you by some of the best in the industry.
Boscobel a Federal Style Home & Garden - Built between 1804 and 1808, Boscobel was originally the dream house of Loyalists Elizabeth and States Dyckman. In 1955, after falling into disrepair, the house was sold to a wrecker for $35 and demolished. Preservationists leapt into action, and with generous support from Lila Acheson Wallace, they raised the funding to restore the Neoclassical mansion back to—and even beyond—its original grandeur. Today, Boscobel’s interiors showcase one of the finest collections of New York furniture from the Federal period, including documented examples by America’s most celebrated cabinetmaker, Duncan Phyfe. The view from Boscobel of the Hudson River as it winds south to Bear Mountain inspires awe, overlooking Constitution Marsh toward the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
