The Fort Tryon Park Cottage, located near the entrance to the park at Corbin Circle, at the intersection of Cabrini Boulevard and Fort Washington Avenue in the Hudson Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, was originally the gardener's cottage of the Cornelius G. K. Billings estate. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. purchased the property in 1917, and had it developed by the Olmstead Brothers. He donated it to the city as a park in 1931. The Billings mansion had burned down in 1925, but the stucco gatehouse remains. (Source: "History of Fort Tryon Park")
