Wandering its grounds, one can catch glimpses of a bygone era, with ornate details, sweeping staircases, and grand reception rooms telling stories of the prominent figures who once graced its halls. It's a testament to the Vanderbilt family's ambition and the architectural splendor that defines this coastal city.
