HIDDEN GEM

Valentine-Varian House

The Bronx's second-oldest house, a 1758 fieldstone farmhouse that survived the Revolutionary War changing hands between British and American troops multiple times. It now holds the Museum of Bronx History, and it sits across from Williamsbridge Oval Park almost unnoticed by joggers circling the track.
