Historic Hudson Valley will receive $500,000 to physically link and visually integrate historic sites and parkland along the Hudson River, including properties of Sunnyside, Lyndhurst, the Old Croton Aqueduct State Historic Park, and a newly created county park in the town of Greenburgh. The integration will unite 67 acres of Lyndhurst and the 37 acres of the proposed county park with the 24 acres of Sunnyside and the 26.2 mile Old Croton Aqueduct State Park.

Award money will also be used to create an entrance through Sunnyside to the new county park, as well as development of a new two-way access road; creation of a new path system from the parking lot to the visitors center; maintenance of historic paths north of the Sunnyside pond; and construction of footbridges on the riverside trail.

Other projects include an expansion of the China Pier in Peekskill; an exterior restoration of Westchester Arts Council's new headquarters; a study of existing uses in Harbor Island Park in the village of Mamaroneck; and an Echo Bay planning study in the city of New Rochelle.

The project is a public-private partnership involving the state, the county, the National Trust for Historic Preservation and Historic Hudson Valley.
