I reverted your edits to Taconic State Parkway because they weren't sourced, and that sort of commentary is really better off somewhere other than the route description section. But ... I took a look at the aerial photo, and it looks like your description makes more sense. The sources I had read said something about an overlook being closed around that point; but maybe I was confusing it with the overlook to the south of Peekskill Hollow Road (right before the section that I have to get a picture of this summer ... speaking of which, I should get out to that area and see if there's any sign of the old bridle paths as well).

Given your stated interests, I wonder if you'd also be interested in signing up for WikiProject Hudson Valley (it wouldn't impose any obligations on you; don't worry about that). Welcome! Daniel Case (talk) 22:32, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

Sorry I can not offer any documentation. At age 82, I am recalling what I remember about how it was upon opening and the changes that followed. Regarding closed overlooks there was one on the Westside south of the Peekskill Hollow Road, including a bronze marker in the wall. As for the bridle path, I recall one of the west side, from route 202 to 6, althought I don't remember seeing any farther north. As for the Hudson Valley project, perhaps I might be for some help when it comes to "how it was back when". Robert M. Strang
