Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: A shady path lined with stone benches leads to the rooftop terrace above the Ecology Building at Wave Hill Public Garden in the Bronx, as seen during a June 2022 visit. Once the complex's Recreation Building, this charming stone-block structure, uniquely embedded into the hillside behind the house, was connected to the adjacent Glyndor Mansion via a tile-lined tunnel. Among other amenities, it once contained a bowling alley decorated with a mural painted by Frederick Samuel Dellenbaugh featuring American Indian-themed scenes inspired by a recent trip to Alaska. The exterior still remains largely true to the original Colonial Revival-style design conceived in 1909 by architects Heins & LaFarge: note the handsome stone balustrade on the perimeter of what's now a pleasant rooftop terrace. Nowadays, Wave Hill has converted it to house classroom and event space and serve as base of operations for student crews in their Forest Management Project. |
