This large home was built by William Curry for his son, and his new bride. The wealthy millionaire spared no expense in the construction of the home for his son Robert.
Unfortunately, Robert had been fragile most of his life and when his father died, he managed to eventually squander his Father's immense wealth. Desperate and utterly broke, the feeble son committed suicide in the bathroom located on the second floor of the mansion.
