Battlefield · 374 Temple Hill Road, New Windsor, NY 12553

The site of the New Windsor Cantonment where approximately 10,000 Continental Army soldiers camped during the final year of the war.

Newburgh Waterfront and River Overlook

Landmark · Water Street, Newburgh, NY 12550

The Hudson River waterfront and bluff below Hasbrouck House, providing the geographic context for Newburgh's strategic importance.
