OHEKA Castle, Hotel & Estate - http://www.oheka.com New York. 1914. Financier Otto Hermann Kahn built OHEKA Castle. At the time of its construction, the French-style chateau was, & still is today, the 2nd largest private residence ever built in America. After Otto Kahn died in 1934, the estate changed hands several times, serving as a retreat for NY sanitation workers, & a government training school for Merchant Marine radio operators & Eastern Military Academy. After the school went bankrupt 30 years later, OHEKA stood abandoned, except by vandals who set more than 100 fires in 5 years. In 1984, developer Gary Melius purchased OHEKA & the remaining 23 acres of the estate & began restoration. With 32 guestrooms & suites, OHEKA is a member Small Luxury Hotels of the World & is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. OHEKA remains today a symbol of the history of America & a monument to the Gold Coast of Long Island. |
