Regarding Haverstraw King's Daughters Public Library. National Register of Historic Places #91000950. Also known as the Fowler Library Building.
Also see . . . Haverstraw King's Daughters Public Library (Wikipedia). The library itself, established near the end of the 19th century, is the oldest chartered public library in Rockland County. Shortly after its creation, it moved into the building, combining two contemporary revival architectural styles, after money was raised by the local chapter of the King's Daughters, a women's civic organization.
