THANK YOU CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY FOR THE HEADS-UP--MOMA BUILT A HOUSE, THEN IT DISAPPEARED, NOW IT'S FOUND, NY TIMES

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.

THANK YOU CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY FOR THE HEADS-UP--NY TIMES, MOMA BUILT A HOUSE, THEN IT DISAPPEARED, NOW IT'S FOUND ... FROM THE CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY FACEBOOK PAGE:

Although lost to architectural historians for more than 70 years, the survival and location of Gregory Ain’s MOMA show house was known to Croton Historical Society board member Cornelia Cotton and to Jane Northshield, who was Village Historian from 1974 to 1999. We are pleased to have assisted Eve Kahn of the New York Times in her research for this article. In the comments we will post photos of the house discovered in our files—likely taken by Jane Northshield in the 1970s (YOU CAN SEE ONE OF THE PHOTOS HERE.)  A note on the back of one of the photos says, “Skol house. Formerly in the Museum of Modern Art.”  READ MORE AT THE NY TIMES HERE.
