In 1928, Clarence Dillon had Cross & Cross design a Georgian Revival mansion utilizing 18th century bricks from "Hatfield Manor" in Virginia. Clarence Dillon took over Read & Co and named it Dillon Read. He purchased Dodge for $146 million in cash, outbidding J.P. Morgan. He also created National Cash Register (NCR).

After his death in 1979, the house and 126 acres were given to Princeton Univ. for a conference center and retreat. His son, daughter and grandson live on the remaining land.
