Description
Image of a castle turret of Bannerman's Island Arsenal. Located on Pollepel Island in the Hudson River are the towering ruins of Bannerman's Island Arsenal, also known as Bannerman Castle
The castle was built by Francis Bannerman VI in 1901 to hold the large amount of munitions he purchased following the Spanish-American War.
After years of neglect and a fire, the arsenal and family residence are in ruins but are actively being restored thanks to volunteer efforts.
