Small railroad building visible from Spuyten Duyvil train station
I can’t claim to know anything about this little building. It is plainly visible from both the Henry Hudson Bridge and the Spuyten Duyvil train station, so I would guess tens of thousands of people are exposed to it daily. However, a quick search on the web didn’t turn anything up (I didn’t know what terms to use, though). I would love to see it close up, but I am not one to jump fences and risk life and limb on the train tracks (not to mention prison for trespassing) for this.
Do you know anything about it, dear reader?

It was probably the train master’s house, with living space upstairs for his family and an office downstairs to oversee the tracks and switches.
