Bramley Mountain formerly had a fire observation tower at its peak. The tower was an 80 feet (24 m) tall Aermotor LS40 tower and was erected by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation in 1950. The tower was closed at the end of the 1970 season. In 1975, the tower was sold for $50 and removed from the mountaintop. The family that purchased and removed it from the mountain has kept the tower in storage. In 2008, the NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) acquired the parcel that includes Bramley Mountain. Then in 2016, the DEP allowed the Catskill Mountain Club to build a trail to the summit. In January 2020, Friends of Bramley Mountain group was formed. The family plans to give the tower to the group so it can be placed back at its original location.[2]
