• Poughkeepsie Waste Water Plant 2

The northern line of the Myers parcel ran approximately along the right field fence and in front of the original McCann center.
  

• Carport at Carriage House 2

  This photo shows part of the back wall of the carport. Dr. George Way added this three bay carport to the original carriage house. He used rock debris from the remnants of the original house to match the rock on the face of the carriage house, but more importantly to reduce the amount of cement needed to form the floor, the piers, and the tall retaining wall at the far end of the carport. The dark structure barely visible at the far end of the carriage house is an addition that provided office space and a back porch to the residence. Just beyond the wood stockade fence at the left of the photo is a pool and stairway down to the back of the carport and house.
  

• John Witter Oral History

  John Witter describes his time at Marist, and how he went on to start programs at local prisons to educate the inmates there. He also talks about how the band should have a music major, since so many students who are playing have a serious commitment to it.
  

• Newbold Carriage House

  Existing structures are the former Newbold carriage house, the caretaker’s house close to route nine, and the Reilly house (built in 1947 and still on Reilly heirs property). There are several former carriage trails through the property. The original gardener's cottage facing route nine is on a four acre site once owned by the Newbolds, but now owned by someone other than Marist College.
  

• Hermanse and Sanders Patent 2

  This chart of the actual land included in the Hermanse & Sanders patent shows that the northern border became the Town of Clinton (later the Town of Hyde Park). The southern border was a straight line up from the mouth of Fallkill Creek (near Mount Carmel Church). The Fallkill dips south as it moves eastward, then bends back and eventually moves north behind the present St. Peter's Cemetery on Salt Point Turnpike road in the town of Poughkeepsie. Variations in the course of creeks and the direct east line led to many disputes between neighboring patentees.

Richard Barley lives in the house Julian built for his own family.
  

• Brooder House

  A brooder house was located next to the two chicken houses. Currently it is used for storage.
  

• Beavers House 2

  The photos at right and left are of ruins of a house which probably belonged to the Beavers, who occupied the northern half of the property before the Pratts. They may have been 'squatters' until the land was definitively taken over by the Pells. Brother Stephen Kappes remembers that fifteen years ago he could see the outlines of at least two rooms, with walls projecting at right angles. Time has filled in the spaces. The site had a magnificent view of the Hudson River
