On view October 8 through December 28, 2025

When the first Croton Aqueduct was built, the City of New York exercised eminent domain to complete the project. Many longstanding working farms and estates in Westchester, the Bronx, and Manhattan were forced to give up valuable land and historic rights of way. Although local landowners were powerless to stop the project, they did win significant concessions, including tunnels, ramps, small route diversions, and even the glorious Highbridge. This exhibit examines the path of the original Croton Aqueduct, the landowners impacted, and the fight to be heard in an era that valued progress at all costs. Don’t miss this new collection of archival documents and research that reveal this important part of the Aqueduct story.
