John M. Toucey Memorial Building, 1928. Constructed for use by the railroad men of New York Central, this stately stone structure was operated by the Railroad Department of the Y.M.C.A. The building was named as a memorial to John M. Toucey, who begun his career as a conductor at New York Central in 1855, before rising in the ranks to General Manager of the company in 1890. Dedicated in 1902, and situated near the rail lines in the south Bronx near the Harlem River, the brick building has been lost in the ensuing century.
