Welcome
to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our
homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING
CROTON.
Delighted as always to share this find from the days of THE CROTON POINT BUNGALOW COLONY: The Croton Point Lighthouse, August
1952--a home grown, hand-typed "newspaper" that existed for those who
lived out on the Point a.k.a. the Bungalow Colony. Courtesy once again
of the outstanding archives maintained by The Croton Historical Society.

Thank you historical society. I have been hearing about the colony for years but never saw anything tangible before. You guys are the greatest.
ReplyDeleteIt seems hard to believe such a place existed at the point. Like the landfill operation. But they did.
