About This Blog

Welcome to Viewshed: The Blog of Roosevelt-Vanderbilt National Historic Sites. Viewshed is a forum for stories related to the National Park Service sites of Hyde Park, New York, written by park employees, park partners, and guests. Here, you can read about our park’s museum collections, the life and times of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, the Gilded age culture in which the Vanderbilts thrived, as well as the people who work at our park to preserve and interpret these histories. We hope these posts leave you with a greater understanding of the National Historic Sites of Hyde Park, their histories, and their impact. Enjoy!
