Evening Star Building

The Peekskill Evening Star Building was built in 1930 as the new headquarters for The Evening Star, a newspaper published and printed locally for almost fifty years. The architects Stern & Peyser designed the masonry building in the Art Deco Style. It has a two-story front section with limestone veneer. On the Main Street side there is a three-bay façade with central pavilion with a monumental arched glazed entrance and a tall parapet with a carved sign. After The Evening Star newspaper ceased publication, the building was sold. In 2015, the building was purchased by Vivid RGB Lighting LLC. The Peekskill Evening Star Building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. Source: CLIO.
