The Seguine Mansion was built in the mid-19th century, around 1840. The massive house is a perfect example of the Greek revival style, with tall pillars holding up a triangular pediment on the front facade. It is also one of the best remaining examples of life on Staten Island during the 19th century, and today, visitors can tour the 18-room mansion for a taste of what life was like back then. The extensive grounds and gardens, which were designed by famous landscaper Frederick Law Olmsted (the mastermind behind Central Park), are home to over 80 acres of trees, fields, and exotic birds like peacocks. Also on the property is the Seguine Equestrian Center, where visitors can take riding lessons from world-renowned trainers.
