Residential Buildings

Boscobel House and Gardens is a historic house museum in Garrison, New York, overlooking the Hudson River. Built in the early 19th century for States Dyckman, the house is considered a significant example of Federal-style American architecture, its interior enhanced by decorative elements and furniture chosen to represent the Federal period even though not original to the house. Threatened with demolition in the mid-20th century, it was moved about 15 miles upriver from its original site in the Westchester County hamlet of Montrose to its present location near Cold Spring in Putnam County.

Entity-backed identity for the building-type enum value this building already carries, resolved to an architecture concept by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The building-type fact itself stays on the building unchanged.
