THE END OF AN ERA: THE DEMOLITION OF THE HARMON RAILROAD WORKSHOPS

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

The End of an Era: The Demolition of the Harmon Railroad Workshops - As many of you know, demolition began some months ago and continues--on a portion of the existing shops. It's a bittersweet time for retirees of the railroad--and there are many here in Croton still. (Click on the photo courtesy of CROTON HISTORY & MYSTERIES)
