New Rochelle station is a Metro-North Railroad and Amtrak train station located in New Rochelle, New York. The station serves Metro-North's New Haven Line and Amtrak's Northeast Regional; Bee-Line Bus System buses serve a bus stop just outside the station. As of August 2006, weekday commuter ridership was 4,020, and there are 1,381 parking spots. It is the busiest New Haven Line station in Westchester County. On October 14, 2009, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The NRHP listing is limited to the historic station building and just the land underneath its roofline, as the pedestrian bridge elevators, track and other associated structure is all much newer and lack historical merit. The building was built in 1887 for the New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad. The architect of the building is unknown; it was built by George O. Hawes, a local builder. The building was remodeled in 1931.

Trump Plaza (New Rochelle)
Trump Plaza (New Rochelle)

Trump Plaza New Rochelle is a 40-story luxury condo located in New Rochelle, NY. The Trump Organization no longer manages the property after their services were rescinded by the Condo Board in October 2021, and is now managed by AKAM Associates. Trump Plaza New Rochelle was built by Cappelli Enterprises, the same developer that built Trump Tower at City Center in nearby White Plains. Trump Plaza was the tallest building in Westchester County and the tallest building between New York City and Albany until the completion of the 44-story, twin-towered Ritz-Carlton hotel in White Plains.Trump Plaza is part of a massive downtown redevelopment project that began with the construction of New Roc City in 1999. The project encompasses Parcel 1A and the Lawton Street Redevelopment block known as Le Count Square. Located at 175 Huguenot Street, Trump Plaza is built on the 2-acre (8,100 m2), Parcel 1A site which the City of New Rochelle had sought to redevelop for more than 30 years. In 2008 Cappelli Enterprises will begin development of 'Le Count Square' opposite Trump Plaza, adding 1,000,000 square feet (93,000 m2) of hotel, office, retail and residential space to the area. With the development of Trump Plaza and LeCount Square, Cappelli's total investment in downtown New Rochelle will exceed $1 billion.The 353,600-square-foot (32,850 m2) Trump Plaza consists of 138,000 square feet (12,800 m2) of retail space on two levels at its base, topped with a luxury condominium tower. Trump Plaza rises more than 435 feet (133 m) over downtown New Rochelle. The retail portion of the project is linked to New Roc City by an enclosed pedestrian bridge.

New Rochelle Public Library

New Rochelle Public Library (NRPL) is a public library located in New Rochelle, New York. Chartered in 1894, the NRPL is a school-district library with its own operating budget and a Board of Trustees with seven elected members. The library has served the residents of New Rochelle from its main library building in the downtown business district since 1979. The current main library, constructed in the center of the downtown business area as part of a major neighborhood revitalization project, opened to the public on September 19, 1979. Unfortunately missing from this is a statement on who owns the land and the building . The building was designed by architects Pomeroy, Lebduska Associates of New York and Fred W. Lyon Associated Architects of New Rochelle. It offers 67,000 square feet of space spread over three floors. The main section of the building (60% of the total structure) was refurbished from a former parking garage, with the resulting low ceiling heights offset with the creation of a wide, central skylit area. This innovative design resulted in an 'Award of Excellence for Library Architecture' from the American Institute of Architects and the American Library Association in 1980.Norman Rockwell's painting The Land of Enchantment hangs in the children's reading area of the main library branch.In 2007, the New Rochelle Public Library circulated 345,238 items, answered 216,451 reference questions and loaned 98,383 items to other Westchester libraries.The Huguenot Children's Library is located in the former Mahlstedt residence, adjacent to the "Twin Lakes" on the campus of New Rochelle High School. Formerly the "Huguenot Branch" of the Public Library, the present day children's branch is the only library in New York State to be created and supported entirely through private funds.
