Lobdell house, Post Office dedicated historic

BY JODI WEINBERGER The Lobdell house
EDITOR The post office

Tricia Gregory, a seventh-generation member of the Lobdell DRAWINGS BY CROTON FALLS ARTIST MIKE BONELLI,
family, said her father would have been thrilled to know the COURTESY OF THE NORTH SALEM HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
Lobdell house and Lobdell Store and Post O ce are now des-
ignated historic landmarks in town.

e Town Board approved the historic landmark designation
at a council meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 22, at the urging of the
town’s Historic Preservation Commission (HPC).

“Unfortunately, (my father) passed away two years ago, but I
have a letter he sent to Dick DeFrances when he was town histo-
rian … urging them to preserve the house and telling them some
of the history. He would really be so excited that it’s come to this.”

Supervisor Warren Lucas thanked the Historic Preservation
Commission for doing “a phenomenal job” putting together the
application for the buildings, located at 270 and 274 Titicus
Road and owned by the town.

“I don’t want the architecture screwed up by somebody,” Lu-
cas said. “ e designation will maintain the architecture.”

Both buildings are currently being used as o ce space, said
Francis Tuoti, chair of the HPC, so getting them this designa-
tion ensures the preservation of the historical architectural fea-
tures of the building should renovation work need to be done.

“ is commission recognizes that the buildings, currently in
active use by the town, may require enlargement or external
modi cation to continue serving the public in the future,”Tuoti
wrote in the application. “We are sensitive to these issues and
work diligently and rapidly with landmark owners to achieve
the desired results.”

Gael Pantezzi and Susie ompson of the Historic Pres-
ervation Commission submitted the following details
about the town’s newest landmarks, which they call “the
soul of Salem Center.”

At the Town Board meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 22, the board
voted unanimously to designate Lobdell Store and Post Of-

ce (sometimes called “ e Annex”) and Lobdell House. e
rst building currently houses the town’s Building Department,
Zoning Board and Historic Preservation Commission o ce,
and the latter houses the Planning Board, Assessor, Receiver of
Taxes, Recreation Department and Town Historian.

e three buildings that comprise the town government cam-
pus are now a little historic district, including Delancey Hall
(o ces of the supervisor, director of nance and town clerk),
which are a landmark and on the National Register.

e former store and post o ce is a Greek Revival-style
wood frame and clapboard building erected before 1850 and
features a temple front with four octagonal wood columns. e
building has been moved twice, rst from across the road when
New York City took land for the reservoir, and second to im-
prove public access for its use as a government building. Major
renovations occurred in 1995-96 and in 2017.

Lobdell House was built by Albert J. Lobdell in 1883-84
for his bride Mary Louise Braden. is three-story Victorian
house is in the Stick-Victorian style and includes sloped gables,
cross gables and dormers with Kings Post trusses, deep brack-
eted overhangs, and wrap-around porches. ere are twin brick

To truly travel with confidence your personal

systems that only work inside your home, MobileHelp’s medical alert
system extends help far beyond the home. Participate in all your favorite
activities, such as traveling, shopping, exercising and gardening with
the peace of mind of having a personal medical alert system with you.
MobileHelp, the “on-the go” help button, is powered by one of the
nation’s largest cellular networks, so there’s virtually no limit to your help
button’s range. With our GPS feature activated, we can send help to you,
even when you can’t talk or tell us where you are.*

No landline? No problem! While traditional medical alert systems require a landline, MobileHelp is

powered by a nationwide cellular network, allowing you to travel virtually anywhere with 24/7 protection

and eliminating the need for a landline. Whether you are home, shopping across town, or on vacation, a

Sales down, prices up in 2018
Housing market expected to remain ‘vibrant’ in 2019

While remaining robust, residential sales in some
areas of the lower Hudson Valley were slightly lower
than the historic highs of the past two years.

In 2018, Westchester, Rockland and Orange coun-
ties all experienced declines in the number of resi-
dential sales as compared to 2017. Putnam, Bronx
and Sullivan counties, which are also served by the
Hudson Gateway Multiple Listing Service, were the
exceptions experiencing increases in residential sales
of 4.7 percent in Sullivan, 1.9 percent in Putnam and
1 percent in Bronx County.

e lower Hudson Valley experienced historically
low inventories of single family homes at the begin-
ning of the year, which may have contributed to an
initial decline of sales. Rockland County, which expe-
rienced an 11.5 percent drop in sales of single family
homes, also saw an increase of 11.4 percent in sales
of 2-4 family homes and an increase of 2.5 percent in
condo sales. Days on market, the number of days from
the time a home is listed for sale to the time of a fully
executed contract of sale, was signi cantly lower in all
counties.

Another indication of healthy demand in the hous-
ing market was the increase in sales price in all coun-
ties. Westchester County, which had the highest
number of single family home sales at 5,876 units,
experienced a rise of 1.2 percent in median price to
$650,000, up from $642,000 a year earlier. Orange
County, with 3,827 units sold, saw an increase of 6.4
percent in its median to $258,600 from $243,000 a
year earlier. Despite the diminution of units sold in
Rockland County, the median sales price rose 4.5 per-
cent to $460,000 from $440,000 a year earlier. Put-
nam County, which had a 2.2 percent increase in unit
sales, also had a 3.7 percent increase in median price,
rising to $350,000 from $337,500 a year earlier.

Overall, in 2018, 21,338 residential units were
sold in the areas covered by Hudson Gateway Mul-
tiple Listing Service. is was a drop of 2.6 percent
from the prior year. Possible headwinds for the hous-
ing market for 2019 continue to be the unknown ef-
fect of the tax reform law of 2018, which limits the
deductibility of state and local taxes, and a volatile
stock market. However, given the improving inven-
tory numbers, continuing attractive mortgage interest
rates, high employment in the region and a healthy
economy, it is anticipated that the market will remain
vibrant in 2019.
