CONTEMPORARY VIEWS

Off Bogart Road, the once busy joint terminus of the Otis Elevating and the Catskill Mountain Railway slumbers in relative obscurity. With no less than six original turn-0f-the-century buildings, most in their original locations, Otis Junction arguably qualifies as its own historic district in Rip VanWinkle's legendary hometown, Palenville, New York.
