Location

Gaylordsville station is a former train station in Gaylordsville, Connecticut. The station building was built in the 1918, replacing the Merwinsville Hotel as the local depot, to serve passengers on the Housatonic Railroad.[2] Shortly after its closure, the station was purchased by former New York advertising executives, Jean & Cle Kinney.[3] In October 1971, the couple relocated the structure to a nearby hill on River Road and converted it into their own unique and creative home.[4]
