4. Wyndcliffe Mansion centered around a three-story atrium

Wyndcliffe Mansion in disrepair.

George Veitch designed Wyndcliffe Mansion, along with the first Protestant Episcopal Church of the Messiah in Rhinebeck, New York. The mansion is designed in the Norman style, which is characterized by spatial compartmentalization and high arches. This is evident by the arched windows and also an atrium in the mansion that spans three floors.

Tiffany stained-glass is said to have topped the atrium, although it has been destroyed for decades. As much of the roof of the mansion has fallen, the atrium is exposed to the elements. The mossy ground of the atrium, covered in fallen debris, is all that remains of the glory.
