About this property

The Italian Center is the name commonly used for a mid-19th-century house that is home to the organization of the same name on Mill Street in Poughkeepsie, New York, United States. It is a contributing property to the Mill Street-North Clover Street Historic District. It was first built as a simple building by 1857 and gradually expanded and renovated into its current form over the next 30 years. The Italian Center was formed in 1928 and bought the house the same year, expanding it in the 1960s with a discreet rear wing. On April 19, 1972, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
