Pet cemetery is always clean & well taken care of. Parking is small, but never seem to have an issue, for people come & go in enough time for others to pay their respects.

Union Church of Pocantico Hills

This unassuming country church contains a stained glass window by Henri Matisse and nine windows by Marc Chagall, all commissioned by Nelson A. Rockefeller. The enthralling story of the windows and how they came to be here is the story of relationships among distinguished patrons and collectors of modern art, two great 20th-century artists, and the leading connoisseurs and tastemakers of the day. WINDOW-VIEWING TOURS ARE TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE UNTIL APRIL 2. Please continue to check this listing or go to our website for updates.

A small non denominational church which had been used by the Rockefeller’s in the past has a wonderful Matisse rose window completed 3 days before his death and 10 other stain glassed windows by Chagall. Some dedicated to members of the Rockefeller family members after their death.

Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge

Reviewed By dese2 - Auburn, United States

I have croassed this bridge and used the old one, The Tappen Zee. The name was changed to honor Governor Mario M Cuomo. There is a toll to enter but when you leave there is no charge. You use auto pay with transponder or by mail. No toll booths anymore. The new bridge is very impressive and as you travel into Westchester, as you cross the Hudson River, you might catch sight of Manhattan or a train along the water's edge. If you look north you might see the Tarrytown Light House standing guard too. Traffic is heavy, or has been every time I've crossed, even with the expanded lanes. There is usually a showdown on the Rockland side at Nyack and at Exit 9, Tarrytown. Just enjoy the ride and don't try to compete.
