Rock Lawn is a historic house in Garrison, New York, United States. It was built in the mid-19th century from a design by architect Richard Upjohn. In 1982 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places along with its carriage house, designed by Stanford White[3] and built around 1880.[1]
It is Upjohn's only house in the Italian villa style in the Hudson Highlands.[2] Hamilton Fish II, a longtime member of the State Assembly and Putnam County's Republican Party chairman and de facto political boss, owned the house and lived there during the late 19th century; during that time sympathetic additions were made to the house by an unidentified architect.[2] More recently it has been the home of Patty Hearst and her late husband Bernard Shaw.[4][5] In the early 21st century it was renovated and remodeled.[3]
