The Trall House located at 520 Hillsdale Avenue. It was built about 1875 embellished with Gothic Revival vergeboards and king-post gable trim. This Second Empire home was built on a 26-acre farm in the 1860’s by Selden Trall, a retired druggist from NY. It was inherited by son Orrin Trall, a farmer and one of Hillsdale’s founding fathers and founding Fire Dept. members as well as town and county tax collector. It was passed on to his daughter, Myra, in 1924, who was married to George Yates, first Borough Clerk and 3rd Mayor of Hillsdale. At that time, the property contained a tennis court.
