July 1888 - THE SECOND MAJOR STRUCTURE IS ADDED AT WILDERSTEIN

Arnout Cannon is the designer and Robert A. Decker of Rhinebeck the contractor for a 10,000-square-foot carriage house. Like the mansion, the carriage house is also in the popular Queen Anne style with lavish aesthetic movement decoration. In the early years, it is referred to simply as the “stable.” When the family acquires their first automobile in 1906, it becomes the “garage.”
