Ep.2: Marble House, Part I

In Episode 2 of The Cultured Commuter's Beyond Gilded Series we visit a gilded jewel and one of the most impressive of the Newport Mansions, Marble House.
Designed between 1888-92 by Richard Morris Hunt, Marble House is an architectural triumph and a trophy for Gilded Age socialite and power broker, Alva Vanderbilt.
