The "Historic" Village Diner
is significant as a distinctive example of early-twentieth century
American roadside architecture surviving exceptionally intact from
its date of manufacture in the 1920's. It embodies distinguishing
characteristics of the type and period in its streamlined metal
railroad dining car inspired design, which was intended to evoke, at
once, the ideas of travel, food cleanliness and modern efficiency.
The diner is additionally significant as a representative example
of a Silk City Diner,
a highly popular prefabricated dining car line manufactured by the
Paterson Vehicle Company of Paterson, New Jersey from the 1920's to
the 1950's. Moved several times to adapt to changing travel
patterns, the history of the diner also recalls the growth and
development of the regional transportation system during the early
automobile age.
After years of catering to travelers on Dutchess County's major
highways, the "Historic"
Village Diner now enjoys continued popularity as a
community-oriented restaurant and the focal point of much local
nostalgia. |
