— Proprietor, Benny Havens Tavern —

Originally located on Homestaed Avenue, later moved to the banks of the Hudson.

Generations of West Point Cadets enjoyed the congenial atmosphere at the off-limits tavern run by Benny Havens. Here they could relax, unwind and spend some time away from the demands of the Academy. Benny was memorialized in the legendary song "Benny Havens 'O"
