The Hunt Memorial Building in downtown Ellenville was completed in 1918. It is located where the old inn, The Hoornbeek Tavern, used to be. The inn was where important town meetings were held including the decision to name the town Ellenville after one of its women residents named Ellen. In 1982, a man named Seymour Friend bought the building. It is now owned by the Village of Ellenville.
