Coolidge Reservation

History

The reservation is located on Coolidge Point, a peninsula once owned by—and named for—the Coolidge family. The reservation property includes the former site of the Coolidge's "Marble Palace", a Georgian-style mansion designed in 1902 by Charles McKim. Although the mansion no longer stands, the home's grounds are preserved as the "Ocean Lawn".[1]

The reservation was established in 1992.[1]
