Thanks so much. My friend did the roofing there many years ago. I have more images on my website.

In 2019 I was the organizer for the Long Island Photography Meetup. We did a private event at the Woolworth Building in NYC.

**The Woolworth Building is an early American skyscraper designed by architect Cass Gilbert located at 233 Broadway in the Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City. It was the tallest building in the world from 1913 to 1930, with a height of 792 feet.**

Thanks so much for all the kind comments.

jaymatt, thanks for your comment.

Thanks, I will go back every few weeks to see the progress.

Yes it is a major remodel. The new owner wants to remain silent. It did say he plans to live there.

Here is a bit more info into the estate.

Thank you. It is all in the narrative. :)

Woolworth Estate

I have photographed this estate many times over the past 30 years. I was in the house as visiting nurse to see Mrs. Martin Carey. The house was in very bad condition at that time. It is amazing to see what this new owner has done to this property. At one time it was so overgrown.
I remember seeing Martin Carey riding on his mowing lawn mower. Even in his early 90's, he was still taking care of the property leading up to the house.


**A more than 16-acre New York estate that once belonged to F.W. Woolworth of the famed five-and-dime store chain has sold for $8.25 million—more than 50% less than its original asking price.
Built in 1915, the ornate, 30,000-square-foot mansion in the Long Island city of Glen Cove sold on Wednesday, according to the Multiple Listing Service.
The buyer was a Long Island resident who made an all-cash offer, according to listing agent Margaret Trautmann of Compass. She said he has experience renovating large properties in the area and intends to live in the mansion after its makeover, but declined to further identify him. Records of the sale are not yet available, so Mansion Global could not independently identify the buyer.
It was most recently owned by Martin Carey, the late entrepreneur and preservationist who was a younger brother of Hugh Carey, who was New York governor from 1972-82, according to records with PropertyShark. Carey owned the home since the ’70s, and was dedicated to preserving Gilded Age mansions on Long Island and in Newport, Rhode Island. He died in 2020 at the age of 98.
Still known as the Woolworth Estate or Winfield Hall, the home was built by Woolworth—whose initials stood for Frank Winfield—after a shingled home on the site burned down.
“In 1913, he decided to build a house to protect his three girls and his wife,” Ms. Trautmann said. “That’s why he built a marble house—so that it wouldn’t burn to the ground…it took between 1913 and 1915 to build this house…[and] he apparently spent $10 million building it and $2 million on the marble staircase.”
It also boasts a foyer with 33-foot ceilings and gold leaf ceilings, plus 2-inch thick butterfly marble that seems to have the insects embedded in the pink-and-beige stone, the agent added. There’s also bespoke millwork and chandeliers throughout, plus a music nook with space for a grand piano and numerous other period details.
Woolworth died after living in the home for just a few years, and a nephew of R.J. Reynolds, who owned the eponymous tobacco company, purchased the home. The 17,000-square-foot carriage house was converted into a workshop, and Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil was developed for food purposes there, Ms. Trautmann explained. ****

Thanks so much for the kind comments.

I would suggest 2 cameras one with the 24-105 and one with the 100-400 with a tc.
No tripod, monopod not needed with your Sony A7R4.

Sometimes the animals are far, sometimes they are just too close to photograph.
I was with 5 friends, we had 2 trucks so each person could have the entire row. My friend took this image of me with 2 of our friends. The leopard just walked under the window. It was amazing to see this beauty up close.

You believe wrong. Why would you think you know more about my camera than I do?
I had the Insta 360oneX2 and upgraded to the Insta onX3.
I explained that with this camera I can take one image and process it about 5 different ways.

I have also done videos with this camera. Here is a link to a video I did with my first 360 camera.

Here are a few images I took this week with my 360 one3. It was 1 image but processed 3 different ways.

I have the Insta 360 oneX3. This is my third 360 camera. I have taken it to Africa, Cuba, Italy & Iceland, but I always take my Sony cameras & lenses.

A great little camera is the Sony DSC RX100 Mark VII. I also take this with me where ever I travel. I have 3 full frame Sonys, usually only take one and then this one. It is a bit costly but it is an awesome camera.
