Located in a residential area of Poughkeepsie, New York, Maple Grove is part of a collection of farm estates which once lined South Road (Route 9). The mansion was built in 1850, and despite being unoccupied since 1955 and enduring a serious fire in 1985, Maple Grove has managed a somewhat miraculous survival. Reconstruction and restoration efforts have begun and an appropriate new use is being sought for this beautiful building.
As you explore this site and learn about the history of Maple Grove, its residents, and its location, we invite you to imagine not only what it was in the past, but what it can be in the future.
Maple Grove is located on the property of the St. Simeon senior housing complex in Poughkeepsie. The entrance to St. Simeon's is at 24 Beechwood Avenue in the City of Poughkeepsie.
