| | Archdiocese of New York - St. Joseph's Seminary - Dunwoodie (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) |
 | | On May 17, 1891, Archbishop Michael J. Corrigan, desiring to relocate the seminary closer to his episcopal city, laid the cornerstone of the present Saint Joseph's in the Dunwoodie section of Yonkers, just a few miles north of New York City. |
 | | Successive Archbishops of New York, Cardinals Farley, Hayes, Spellman, and Cooke have enlarged the institution, notably by the addition of a residence wing in 1907, so that it presently provides accommodations for approximately 160 students in single rooms. |
 | | The Archbishop Corrigan Memorial Library is a separate building of four stories on the fourth side of the cloister, with entrances from the first floor of the main building and from outside. |
