Gold Coast Mansions

During the Industrial Revolution, many families made their fortunes. Long Island soon became a place where the mansions of the "Roaring 20's" were built. Although many were torn down over time, a few remain.

1. Caumsett State Historic Park Preserve - With more than 1,500 acres to explore, visitors will love this unique and historic park. The team at Caumsett State Historic Park Preserve focuses on preservation and environmental conservation, as well as historic. Here you can visit open meadows, pristine beaches, and forests, all in one place!
2. Nassau County Museum of Art - Although now a museum, this building was once known as "Clayton" and was built by the founder of U.S. Steel for his son and daughter-in-law. While it was their home, the family enjoyed two tennis courts, a polo field, canoeing, and a small ski slope! They even had a mini-zoo that featured a bear pit, snakes, a monkey house, otters in the pond, and an aviary.
3. Oheka Castle - Now a hotel and wedding venue, Oheka was built on the highest point on Long Island by Otto Hermann Kahn over a century ago. The castle cost $11 million at that time - an estimated $158 million today!
