The Anthony Yelverton House is a historic house located at 39 Maple Avenue Highland, Ulster County, New York.
It is a 1 1⁄2-story, three-bay wide frame structure built about 1754. It is built into the hillside. It features a two-story porch spanning the full width of the building. It is the only surviving structure from "Yelverton's Landing", and once served as a tavern, storehouse, and private residence. [2]
Anthony Yelverton was a Poughkeepsie businessman. From this building and adjacent sawmill, Yelverton developed the area called both Yelverton's Landing and New Paltz Landing because a road connected it to New Paltz, further west. It became both a community in its own right and a Hudson River "port" for commerce from the New Paltz area. [3] [4]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 22, 1983. [1]

Historic Huguenot Street is located in New Paltz, New York, approximately 90 miles (140 km) north of New York City. The seven stone houses and several accompanying structures in the 10-acre National Landmark Historic District were likely built in the early 18th century by Huguenot settlers fleeing discrimination and religious persecution in France and what's now southern Belgium. After negotiating with the Esopus Indians, this small group of Huguenots settled on a flat rise on the banks of the Wallkill River in 1678. The settlers named the site in honor of Die Pfalz, the region of present-day Germany that had provided them temporary refuge before they came to America. Recent archaeological finds indicate that the immediate area settled by the Huguenots was occupied by Native Americans prior to European contact. The site is one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in the United States.
