[QUOTE="Infernal Scribe, post: 4218779, member: 52521"] History of Crossroads High Built on Lenape (or Delaware Indians) burial grounds in 1825, the Crossroads was originally a bed and breakfast establishment, catering to clients that commonly travel by steam-powered ferries along the Hudson. The bed and breakfast was closed down in 1832 due to a series of unfortunate accidents and reopened in 1841 with new ownership took control of the property. Edgar Allan Poe is said to have stayed in the Crossroads during this time while he wrote "the Mystery of Marie Roget". In 1888, the Hook family took control of the property and turn the establishment into a tavern, until in 1890 the Crossroads burnt down due to arson.
