This palatial 70-room "summer cottage" was built by Cornelius Vanderbilt II in the style of a 16th-century Italian Palazzo. The house was passed down through the Vanderbilt family and finally came into the possession of the Newport Preservation Society, which now maintains the property as a museum.
