"Ferncliff" Casino

USA / New York / East Kingston /
 residence, interesting place

The casino outbuilding of "Ferncliff", located south of Astor Cove, was designed in the Neo-classical style by McKim, Mead & White with structural elements by Guastavino Fireproof Tile Co. in 1902 and was converted to a residence for Vincent Astor, son of John Jacob Astor, after the Ferncliff mansion was demolished in 1941. It underwent recent restoration by Platt Byard Dovell White Architects.
