The roof even has copper-clad cupolas.” The property with its fenced equestrian land is part of the former estate of a businessman and philanthropist John J. Raskob, builder of the Empire State Building. “This location is perfect for historic restoration and/or redevelopment, as illustrated by similar properties in this riverside enclave,” Matlat said.
