Bandstand and Dock


"The Rhine River Vista of America"


When the Village adopted its Master Plan consultants Buckhurst, Fish, Hutton, and Katz noted on the official record:

"...the Dock and Bandstand which are located at the foot of Main Street that because of the special character of this waterfront space, it is very frequently used by residents and tourists alike, generally as a tranquil spot to enjoy the vistas, to watch the wild fowl, or to have lunch. This park was described by the Project for Public Spaces as one of the most used open spaces they had ever studied.
"Views of the waterfront and mountain landscapes from certain prominent points have been identified. These spectacular vistas are an important part of the special character and "sense of place" of the village".
"Cold Spring's major assets are its fortunate waterfront location...."
"The most special local park is the Cold Spring Park at the foot of Main Street on the waterfront. Its 1920s bandstand and dock have virtually become the symbols of the village...is really the focus of public waterfront activity for the entire region around Cold Spring."
