residence, LIGC - Long Island Gold Coast, Georgian (architecture)
Estate home designed by Tooker & Marsh c. 1912 in the Georgian Revival style on 14 acres for Amos Dow Carver {shipping, industrialist}. Carver served as president of American Whaling Co., and was chairman of the board of the Baker, Carver & Morrell marine supply manufacturer. It was inherited by his son Clifford Nickels Carver who continued to call it "Amincliff". It was subsequently owned by Roland Korboth.
This estate was an unusual commission for the Tooker & Marsh firm which primarily designed government or industrial buildings. Some of their other works included Pelham Memorial High School, Oyster Bay High School, Manhasset Secondary School, Munsey Park Elementary School, New York Avenue School, Brookwood Hall Apartments, Suffolk County Supreme Court, and Brooklyn's Studebaker Building.
