It was purchased by Lansdell Christie in 1950, who sold it to Nassau County in 1969, becoming the headquarters of the Nassau Parks Conservancy. It was restored in 2010. It is one of three mansions in the Muttontown Preserve, along with the Benjamin Moore Estate, also known as Chelsea, and the destroyed Knollwood Estate.
