August 13, 1957. "Tamarack Lodge, Greenfield Park, New York. General view of lobby." Large-format acetate negative by Gottscho-Schleisner. View full size.
Love the bird cages! I only have the vaguest of memories of Tamarack Lodge. My wife may remember better as her family went there often. We went to Grossinger's mostly.
Besides the pools, activities, horseback riding, hiking and golf, the Tamarack boasted entertainment such as Danny Kaye, Jerry Lewis, Cream, Janis Joplin and The Who. It was ultimately destroyed by a series of fires, the last one in April 2012, but had long before been closed up and abandoned. There is a wonderful collection of the (pre-fire) derelict property on Flickr.
This photo must be a modern recreation: there are NO ASHTRAYS. Or would they have removed them for the photo?
