Title	Building-structure inventory form: "Villa Garage" "Trayaddo Stable"
Creator	New York (State). Division for Historic Preservation
Date.Original	1977-04-22
Contributors	Clark, Donald. F. (Orange County Historian)
Description	Inventory form for building located on Ant Hill Rd. recording the following information: Hon. William J. Bozzuffi (owner at time of inventory). A two and a half story half-timbered stucco construction, rectangular plan with slate roof. Brick chimneys, aluminum windows. Built in 1901-2. In 1901, Spencer Trask, a banker, financier and founder of Yaddo, a 400 acre retreat for artists in Saratoga Springs (still functioning) purchased property, Lot 146 from Tuxedo Park Association. On the 1903 map, the estate is called Trayaddo and a large stone mansion is shown along with one frame stable. The estate in 1926, was sold to Alfred Lee Loomis, physicist who soon converted it into the Loomis Laboratories where he conducted studies of physical and biological effects of high frequency sound waves, Aberdeen chronography, precision measurements of time and electrical potentials of the brain. He was a pioneer in the design of the Loran Navigation System. The laboratories were operative from 1928-1941. Mr. Loomis also commissioned William E. Lescazo, Swiss architect to build a glass laboratory on an adjoining property in 1936 (current owner: Edith Smith). Mr. Loomis himself maintained his residence on Clubhouse Rd., in a house which had been designed by Wilson Eyre for Harleston Deacon. Mr. Loomis purchased that property in 1921. (current owner: B.J. Biondolilio) This converted stable is very much in keeping with the Mr. Purdy's cottage and the estate to which it once belonged. Tudorial.
