So there I am sitting around doing nothing, wondering what to do on this Sunday
afternoon in mid-July. It’s not like it’s a candidate for the beach or the pool, it’s just
too damned cold.
One of the things I have always done on days like today is to simply climb into the
car and drive – doesn’t matter where, just let’s see where we end up…No one else
wants to come along so it’s a solo trip today I’m afraid.
I end up heading west, along the 1,000 Islands Parkway and what a nice relaxing
and interesting time I had.
At the outset, it may be worthwhile to have just a momentary geology/geography
lesson…

Created when glaciers scraped down the mountain tops during the last great ice
age, the Thousand Islands area boasts some of the most unique geography and
biological diversity in the world.
The region was named Manatonna, or ‘Garden of the Great Spirit, ’by the Indians,
but the more practical French gave the area the name it still bears – les Milles
Isles or ‘Thousand Islands’.
Discovered in the late 1800s by railway barons and industrialists as the
playground it is now renowned as, the Islands stretch between Kingston and
Brockville.
Although the area receives its fair share of storms, poor weather more often tends
to track either north or south of the islands. The natural land bridge and
geographical proximity between the United States and Canada – in spots just wide
enough for a small runabout – has helped carve the history of two great nations.

Dark Island, a prominent feature of the St. Lawrence Seaway, is located in the
lower (eastern) Thousand Islands region, near Chippewa Bay. It is a part of the
Town of Hammond, in St. Lawrence County, New York.
A historic landmark here, "The Towers" was long known as Dark Island Castle
until recently renamed "Singer Castle". The island itself sits only a few yards
south of the Canadian-United States border that runs along the river. Because of
its proximity to Canada, it was used for rum-running during prohibition in the
United States.
The south side of the island is only about one hundred feet from the shipping
channel, and cargo ships frequently pass the island. Because of the depth of the
channel on one side, and the relative shallowness on the other, it is very good for
sport fishing of Largemouth Bass and Northern Pike.
![Page 18: Exploring the historical 1,000 Islands Parkway to the Ivy Lea International Crossing](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54940026ac7959ff2d8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Most of the architectural work at Dark Island is attributed to the prominent
American architect Ernest Flagg.
His client was Frederick Gilbert Bourne, president of the Singer Manufacturing
Company (now the Singer Corporation), producer of the Singer Sewing
Machine.
His daughter, Marjorie Bourne Thayer, made additions in 1928.
Flagg also designed the skyscraper headquarters for the company in New York
City—the tallest building in the world at the time. Flagg is known for many major
American projects, such as the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis.
Dark Island Castle was the last of several "castles" built at the Thousand Islands
during a brief interval (1888–1905). Bourne undertook the project while larger
Boldt Castle was nearing completion nearby. The architect modeled the stone
structure, planned in 1903, on Scottish models described in novels of Sir Walter
Scott.
![Page 19: Exploring the historical 1,000 Islands Parkway to the Ivy Lea International Crossing](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54940026ac7959ff2d8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
![Page 20: Exploring the historical 1,000 Islands Parkway to the Ivy Lea International Crossing](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54940026ac7959ff2d8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Following the 1919 death of Frederick Bourne, daughter Marjorie Mrs. Alexandra D.
Thayer took title to the property. Her ownership was contested by a brother, but she
retained title.
On her death, the Roman Catholic order Brothers of the Christian Schools, or
Christian Brothers acquired Dark Island along with the large Bourne country house,
Indian Neck Hall at Oakdale on Long Island, which thereafter became La Salle
Military Academy. Having little use for the remote island in the St. Lawrence River,
the Christian Brothers in 1965 sold Dark Island for approximately US $30,000, to be
used thereafter by charitable organization of religious character, the Harold Martin
Evangelistic Association.
Previous tax-exempt status was contested by neighbors after occupancy by the new
owner. They contended that Dr. Harold Martin, director of the charity, maintained the
tax-exempt property for his own private use as a summer residence. Martin prevailed
in court, on the basis that he and his wife, Eloise, offered a religious service on the
island every Sunday morning, open to all.
During this Martin interval, the property was called "Jorstadt Castle," from Dr. Harold
Martin's family surname before immigrating from Norway
![Page 21: Exploring the historical 1,000 Islands Parkway to the Ivy Lea International Crossing](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54940026ac7959ff2d8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The castle's name has since been changed to Singer Castle. After more than thirty
years of Martin tenure, removal, sometimes due to theft, depleted the original
contents.
Due to the high cost of maintenance, a number of original fixtures and artifacts fell
into disrepair. Rumors about the true use of the property (its new name not
identifying any religious or charitable ownership), together with gradual
deterioration of the property and stories about a complex maze of dimly lit secret
passageways, complete with a dungeon, all increased the romantic mystique of
Dark Island.
During later decades of the Martin period, the late 1980s and early 1990s, Dark
Island was listed for sale. Advertisements appeared in high-end real estate
magazines such as Unique Homes with suggestions that it be a "private
residence, corporate retreat or hunting lodge."
Interest came from as far as Japan, but the property remained unsold until
acquired in 2001 from the Harold Martin Evangelistic Association by Dark Island
Tours, Inc., a venture of German businessman Farhad Vladi and two American
business partners
![Page 22: Exploring the historical 1,000 Islands Parkway to the Ivy Lea International Crossing](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54940026ac7959ff2d8b4a83/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Vladi also operates Vladi Private Islands GmbH, a Hamburg, Germany based
real estate company that specializes in selling islands.
Dark Island Tours, Inc. undertook an extensive campaign of restoration and
adaptation in order to open Dark Island to the visiting public. Tours were initiated
in 2003. Despite losses over the years, the interiors of Dark Island Castle retain
original character, with most of the Bourne-Thayer furnishings.
Unlike nearby Boldt Castle, Dark Island always served as a private residence,
until opened to the public for tours.
In 2008, Dark Island had been listed for sale through Sothebys International
Realty for $24.5 million.

We explored the parkway, from the east to the 1,000 Islands International Bridge at
Ivy Lea and back. It was getting late, so I decided to head back to home base. I was
an interesting afternoon. Obviously, I didn’t see everything there was to see, I
noticed and photographed what caught my attention at the time based on the ‘mood’
I was in. On another trip the photos would likely be totally different…but, we’ll have
to wait and see ab out that.
