Built between 1804 and 1808, Boscobel was originally the dream house of wealthy Loyalists States and Elizabeth Dyckman. For a majority of the American Revolutionary War, States served as a clerk for the British Army's Quartermaster Department, overseeing accounts for the quartermasters responsible for providing all of the necessary provisions to the British army. Today, Boscobel’s interiors display one of the finest collections of decorative arts and New York furniture from the Federal period.

Situated on 68 acres overlooking Constitution Marsh toward the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, Boscobel’s landscape showcases dramatic views of the Hudson River. On Boscobel's Great Lawn, you can see remnants of the “Great Chain” that were used as a naval tactic to prevent British vessels from sailing up the Hudson River during the war.

The story of Constitution Island is the story of the people who once lived here: From the Lenape Indian Tribe of indigenous people who were here thousands of years before European explorers to the Warner Family and the many West Point cadets who found a haven away from home; the American Revolutionary War soldiers; the early Dutch settlers.
