Gatsby’s Gold Coast: 8 Grand Estates

2013-05-21

Take a heady trip back to Jazz Age opulence on Long Island’s Gold Coast, a wealthy retreat near New York City where F. Scott Fitzgerald set “The Great Gatsby.” Oheka Castle, completed in 1919, was owned by financier and philanthropist Otto Hermann Kahn. The cost of construction at the time? $11 million ($110 million in today’s dollars). Not bad for a summer home.
