Views from Syosset

 Oheka Castle

Long Island's Oheka Castle   Long Island's Oheka Castle aerial view

From many points in Syosset, all you have to do is look east and you will have a view of the castle on the hill, also known as Oheka Castle.  In 1914, Otto Hermann Kahn purchased 443 acres to build this summer home and weekend retreat.  For 2 years, a hill was built, upon which the home would sit, making it the highest point on Long Island.  Designed out of concrete and steel , Oheka Castle was the first totally fireproof building. The 109,000 sq ft home was a continues to be the second largest private residence in America.  Visit www.oheka.com for more information.
