Castle Rock Estate
This wonderful estate is near Garrison, New York; the area is known as the Hudson Highlands. I have two images here when I visited the main house in the early 1990s some some event or party.
When standing on the veranda of the main house (seen in image one), one can take in a fantastic view (image two) of the Hudson River with West Point as well as the gap between Storm King Mountain and Breakneck Ridge—sometimes called the “wind-gate”.
When I lived in the area, I had no idea this was built by a railroad tycoon, William H. Osborn, who held the position of president of the Illinois Central Railroad, along with other achievements.
Two images by Richard Koenig; taken in the early 1990s.
