| Description | This is a photograph of the City Club, 120 Grand Street, Newburgh, NY, around the turn of the century. The house was originally built circa 1852 by Andrew Jackson Downing and Calvert Vaux as a home for Dr. William Culbert, a physician who had married Harrietta Powell, granddaughter of Thomas Powell. Note the windows of the Palatine Hotel to the left and all the structures on Second Street to the right. The Palatine Hotel and the Second Street structures were all razed during the urban renewal of the 1970s. A fire destroyed the interior of the City Club in December 1981. The remnants of the building's shell remain, next to the Newburgh Free Library. |
