Vanishing Wurtsboro

This is the building next to the Community Church of Wurtsboro, formerly the Dutch Reform Church. in the middle of Sullivan street on the north side. I guess it has always been a doctor's office. When I was young Dr. Isidore Greenberg and Dr Rakosi had their offices in this building. Years later it was bought by Denish Shah and divided into  seperate apartments..

Over the years the building fell into disrepair and eventually condemned. Recently the property was being sold for the back taxes owed.
In 2012 the Mamakating library bought the building and had it torn down.
 

Now the site will be home to Mamakating's new library

Wurtsboro Winterfest 2013

 

 

Each winter the Wurtsboro Board of Trade sponsors a Winterfest in Wurtsboro. All the shops are open and there is an ice carving contest, face painting, horse & buggy rides, a chili  contest and a nature show. A great way to beat cabin fever and to meet up with friends and neighbors.
