Lyndhurst Featured on A&E
« on: September 04, 2002, 05:05:15 AM »
The Lyndhurst mansion was profiled in a 20-minute segment on "Mansions, Monuments, and Masterpieces" on A&E last Friday night.

The history was given, especially about its occupant the evil robber baron Gould.

Many beautiful shots both interior, exterior, the grounds, history of the Conservatory/greenhouse ...

It was fascinating.

The program was to re-aire about 4 a.m. but I forgot to set my VCR to tape it.

Vlad, I taped in Saturday night at Midnight (EDT in FL).  Also featured was the Lockwood-Matthews mansion that was used in the finale of HODS.  It was neat to see the interiors of both mansions--esp. since we know them so well from HODS (and NODS).

This I did indeed see and quite by accident, too!  Fascinating program, but it saddened me to realize how much of the mansion I never saw while there.  Neither did I realize Mr. Lockwood was such a successful robber baron.
