Mesier Park

On May 1, 1777, this dwelling with a farm of about four hundred and twenty two acres of land on which it stood, was conveyed to Peter Mesier of New York City by Nicholas Brewer, who had owned the property since October 9, 1741. It became the residence of the Mesier family and was known as the Mesier Homestead until August 27, 1891, when it was conveyed with a plot of five acres of land to the Village of Wappingers Falls under an agreement that the property be forever known as Messier Park.
