City of Newburgh historian Mary McTamaney described the small, four-square-mile city of Newburgh as a “treasure box of architectural styles” with history captured in the building of the city’s blocks throughout the years.
“Newburgh was prosperous long enough to have many styles come and go in popularity,” said McTamaney.
