HISTORIC PRESERVATION at Fishkill Supply Depot Historic Site.
A largely undeveloped archaeological landscape preserves portions of the Continental Army’s Fishkill supply depot and military burial ground. Protected acreage, subsurface remains, memorial features, and interpretive markers survive amid surrounding development; no extensive reconstruction represents the depot’s former barracks, workshops, and storehouses.
About Fishkill Supply Depot Historic Site
At this bustling “city” of industry, hammers clanged, and smoke rose from many workshops. Here, workers produced and repaired everything from harnesses and horseshoes to wheels, mess supplies, clothing, and shoes.
