Glen Cove Hotels in Long Island, United States of America

From the Astors to the Vanderbilts, America’s moneyed elite settled in and around Glen Cove, the so-called “Gold Coast”, in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The town’s storied past is visible at the Webb Institute’s Stevenson Taylor Hall, once an oil magnate’s mansion, and waterfront Morgan Park. To honor his wife, robber baron J.P. Morgan leased the parkland to the city for $1 for 999 years.
