The Widener Estate


I'm starting to find out a LOT of information about this estate. First of all the man who it was named after was on the Titanic. Presently the estate is owned by someone else who has made no mention of what he intends to do with it. It is hoped by some that it can be turned into some sort of historic preservation.


I have passed by this estate many times and it is located across the street from our local post office.

It is in a current state of disarray but hopefully that will change in the near future.
