The Osborn house had two towers to the left of the porte cochere shown in the photograph you posted. The book states a fire in 1971 partially destroyed the house and now the property is owned by the Mamaroneck Beach, Cabana and Yacht Club. Google the club and you'll see the two towers incorporated into their main building.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381265307497353021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502312000087595701.post-25992563467241611772021-03-01T09:17:24.275-08:002021-03-01T09:17:24.275-08:00You're absolutely right, Doug.

The far left and right buildings are in both photos, so only the two houses in the 1910 photo have been replaced. I could be wrong.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381265307497353021noreply@blogger.com
