About the Yonkers Trolley Barn
The former Yonkers Trolley Barn stands on Main Street in the city of Yonkers, New York. Built in 1903, it is a massive building of brick over a steel frame, in the Renaissance Revival style. Its 2002 National Register listing recognized it as Westchester County's last remaining trolley barn and the only remnant of the city's trolley system. Albert V. Porter is the credited architect, though little is known about him.
The city hired the Yonkers Railroad Company to create a trolley system so workers could reach plants such as the Alexander Smith Carpet Mills, and it opened in 1886. The Third Avenue Railway Company bought the company in 1898, and in 1903 the barn was built as a storage and maintenance facility and the company's office. At the network's busiest, the barn serviced 85 cars, and the network had nine lines.
The main building is a three-story building, 11 bays by 5, of brick over a steel frame, and it reflects the unusual shape of its lot. A two-story brick former electrical substation is attached to the south. The main building has a flat roof and the substation a gable, both with parapets. After about a half-century of use the barn was taken out of service, was used as offices for city government, and then stood vacant for almost 30 years before conversion to loft apartments. Sidewalks around it appear in a chase scene of the movie Catch Me If You Can.
