Bendel Mansion
Built in the late 1920s by architect Perry Barker, the Bendel Mansion was Henri Willis Bendel’s homage to the classical elegance of a British manor house. Using two Tudor mansions located in Maidenhead, England as inspiration, Barker built the epitome of the American "castle" of the time for his client. The house is on a hill overlooking the lake and has lead-framed glass windows, half-timbered walls, gargoyles, arching staircases, slate roofs, and multiple chimneys. -from Wikipedia
