Florham was never meant to be practical. Built at the absolute peak of America’s Gilded Age, this 100-room English-style manor was designed to announce wealth without limits—and it succeeded. But the world that made Florham possible disappeared faster than anyone expected. What followed was not an immediate collapse, but a slow realization that some monuments are simply too large, too expensive, and too symbolic to survive unchanged.
This documentary explores how obsession, inheritance, and social competition created one of the most extravagant private estates in American history—and why it could only function for a single generation. From Vanderbilt money and architectural excess to rising taxes, shifting values, and an era eager to move on, Florham’s story is a quiet lesson in how fortunes fade while buildings endure.
If you enjoy long-form, slow-burn stories about forgotten mansions, lost empires, and the hidden costs of extreme wealth, consider subscribing. More documentaries like this are on the way.
