On Maple Grove, the Hudson Valley's Forgotten Mansion

  It was kinda' just sitting there (right next to a condo complex, no less).Thankfully a group of folks have joined together and formed the Maple Grove Restoration Project (still looks decent from the outside but the interior could definitely use some TLC), the goal of course being to renew interest in this stunning piece of architecture (vintage Italianate). Yeah, it'll probably remain overshadowed by Locust Grove, the Vanderbilt Mansion, the Roosevelt Mansion, the Mills Mansion, the Wilderstein, Montgomery Place, and the Clermont but the potential seems quite clear to the point of people at least wanting to checking it out.
