About the Hudson River Museum
Westchester County's largest museum is the Hudson River Museum, set in Trevor Park, a park in the city of Yonkers, New York; it also houses the county's only public planetarium. Many consider it an art museum for its large holdings of Hudson River School paintings, though its exhibits also cover regional history, science and heritage. The American Alliance of Museums has accredited it since 1974.
Edwin C. Mott founded it in 1919 under the name Yonkers Museum, using a room of Yonkers City Hall; its first collection was minerals. In 1924 it moved to Glenview, an 1877 mansion designed by Charles W. Clinton that once belonged to the Wall Street financier John Bond Trevor, a house from the Gilded Age. Carved woodwork by the Philadelphia cabinetmaker Daniel Pabst decorates its rooms. A larger, more modern wing followed in 1969, built next to the mansion for $1.8 million; it held galleries, a planetarium, and a Yonkers Public Library branch. A 1972 listing places Glenview in the National Register of Historic Places.
The first planetarium opened in 1956 inside the Glenview dining room, with a dome of 20 feet (6.1 m) and seating for 50. The 1969 planetarium has a 40-foot (12 m) dome and seating for 120. A 2014 renovation brought in a Sky-Skan digital system and a Megastar-IIA projector that can show 22 million stars. A new west wing, 12,000 square feet (1,100 m2), opened in June 2023 with views of the Hudson River.

- A smooth planetarium dome
- The round planetarium dome is the smoothest surface in the model. Layers of 0.12 mm keep it from looking stair-stepped, and a larger print size gives it a rounder profile.
- Angled skylights
- Several small angled skylight blocks sit on the roofs. Print friendly adapts them on a small print, while Full detail keeps them on a larger one.
- One piece with the ground
- The Hudson River Museum is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. The Hudson River Museum takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About this model
The Hudson River Museum is one of more than 2,300 landmark models in Mini Skyline. They are made with AI, and each one is checked from four sides in its real surroundings before release. Everything around it is built from OpenStreetMap and Overture map data. If you would rather print the shape from map data, turn off Landmark models in the Buildings settings.
Common questions
Is there a Hudson River Museum STL I can download?
Mini Skyline builds the file for you in your browser and exports 3MF, which every major slicer opens. If you need an STL, open the 3MF in your slicer and export it from there.
How big can I print it?
Any print size from 40 mm across. The Hudson River Museum grows with the print: about 7 mm tall on the default 160 mm print. For a model larger than your printer bed, Project Mode splits the area into tiles.
Is it free?
Yes. Generation runs in your browser, with no account and nothing behind a paywall.
