The Haverstraw Brick Museum

Haverstraw was once the (albeit self-proclaimed) "Brickmaking Capital of the World." There’s a museum along Main Street housed in a former bank building that showcases the town's pivotal role in the brick manufacturing industry during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. You can peruse exhibits detailing the brick-making process, view vintage tools and machinery, and learn about how immigrant laborers contributed to this thriving industry and the building of modern America. You can also find out which notable structures across the United States use bricks from Haverstraw.

Most museums and historical landmarks in the area do not have storage lockers onsite, so it’s best to arrange a secure location for storing your bags ahead of time. Fortunately, Bounce has luggage storage locations near many of these places where you store luggage for a few hours or more.
