History

The Bartlett House was built in 1870 by Ebenezer Bartlett and served as a hotel for railroad travelers. In the mid-1900s, the hotel was the subject of photographs by Walker Evans. The photos were displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The Bartlett House continued to operate as a railroad hotel for the New York and Harlem and Hudson and Boston Railroads until about 1948. After the rail line was abandoned, the hotel fell into many years of disuse.

In 2012, the Bartlet House was added to the National Register of Historic Places .^[1] In 2016, the Barlett House was renovated by investors and is now open to the public as café and bakery. ^[3]
