This is the 43-acre waterfront estate of William K. Vanderbilt II and one of our area's famed "Gold Coast" mansions. It includes the Reichert Planetarium and it is a total must-see.
Tip: Once a week during the summer, the museum staff dress in costume and enact a performance about the era of the Gold Coast socialites as a “living history tour”.
