- Arden was the estate owned by railroad magnate Edward Henry Harriman and Mary Averell Harriman outside Harriman, New York. By the early nineteen hundreds the family owned 40,000 acres in the area, half of it comprising the Arden Estate. The main house is located at the top of a mountain east of the village, reachable by Arden House Road from NY 17. In September 17, 1886 Harriman bought at auction the 7,863-acre (32 km²) Peter Parrott family estate for $52,500, which was named Arden by the Parrott family after Mrs. Parrott's maiden name. Over the next several years he purchased an additional twenty thousand acres (80 km²), almost forty different parcels of land, and built forty miles of bridle paths. Harriman hired Carrère and Hastings to design a home, which was begun in 1905. Harriman had planned it for many years, but lived in it for only a few months before his death. It was from this estate that his widow would donate ten thousand acres (40 km²) and one million dollars to New York State to start Harriman State Park in 1910. In 1950, his son W. Averell Harriman deeded the property to Columbia University, as "home of The American Assembly," a public policy institution founded by Dwight D. Eisenhower the same year. It became primarily used as a center for executive management programs. The house was identified as America's first conference center, and became a National Historic Landmark in 1966 but is not open to the public. In 2007, the Open Space Institute bought Arden House and its surrounding 450 acres. The house commands extensive views of the Ramapo River Valley. The property brings the total of preserved lands that were once owned by the Harriman family in New York State to nearly 70,000 acres, including Bear Mountain, Harriman and Sterling Forest State Parks.
- Das Arden House ist eine Villa in Orange County, New York. Es liegt auf einem Bergrücken zwischen dem Ramapo River und den bewaldeten Ufern der Cranberry Lakes, wo es die Hudson Highlands überblickt. Die Villa wurde 1885 vom Eisenbahnmagnaten Edward Henry Harriman als Sommerresidenz mit 9000 m2 Wohnfläche errichtet. Die 6700 Hektar umgebende Landschaft, heute Harriman State Park, gehören dazu. Bis zu seinem Tod 1909, als es endgültig fertiggestellt war, war es ein Treffpunkt des amerikanischen Geldadels. Der Entwurf stammt vom Architektenbüro Carrère and Hastings, das auch zahlreiche öffentliche Gebäude wie das Kapitol in Washington D.C. und die New York Public Library planten. Die Landschaftsgestaltung führten Wadley & Smythe aus. Es liegt in dem Teil der Village of Harriman, die auf die Town of Woodbury entfällt, etwa 1,5 Autofahrstunden von Manhattan entfernt im Südosten des Bundesstaates. Averell Harriman, der Sohn des Erbauers, erhielt das Haus 1915 von seiner Mutter. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg stellte er es der United States Navy als Erholungsheim zu Verfügung. 1950 übergab er es an die Columbia University als „Heimstätte“ für das von Dwight D. Eisenhower gegründete politische Forum The American Assembly. Die Universität nutzte das Gebäude auch zu Bildungszwecken. Das Innenministerium stufte es 1966 als National Historic Landmark ein, womit die Nutzung auf religiöse, philanthropische oder Bildungszwecke beschränkt ist. 2007 verkaufte die Universität das Gebäude sowie 150 Hektar Wald an die Landschaftsschutz-Organisation Open Space Institute (OSINY) für 4,5 Mio US$. Um die Kosten zu decken steht das Gebäude zum Weiterverkauf an .
