Built along a tributary of the Hudson River, Tribus was founded in the late 19th Century by Walden Jacobs as a small ramshackle settlement for workers who toiled away at Jacobs’ blue sandstone quarry. After accumulating funds from several wealthy yet delusional investors, Jacobs’ ambitions lead him to developing Tribus into a massive park for hosting the Hudson Valley World’s Fair. Though the fair had never actually happened, the beauty of the park attracted a wealthier demographic, leading to the construction of three elaborate neighborhoods. To make room for construction, Jacobs razed the quarry barracks and forced his workers to live in tunnels, which were eventually used for a subway system.
