Description
Situated on Pollepel Island in the Hudson River in the Hudson Highlands, Bannerman's Castle sits in ruins today. This is the residence on the other side of the island from the castle. David Bannerman sold munitions in NYC. The Bannermans purchased the island from the Taft family in 1900 as a safe storage site. Mr. Bannerman began construction on a simulated Scottish castle and simple residence in 1901. In 1967 it was given to the Taconic Park Commission. Around 1969, there was a great fire which destroyed a lot of the castle.
