Rosecliff Mansion

On the approach to the entry arch at the south end, the first story, wrapped in its cadence of piers, columns, and carved swag, dominates the facade. The H shaped plan frames a front garden and a seaward-facing terrace with projecting wings. The connecting segment contains Newport’s largest ballroom. In his interior design, White staged a scene of social theatrically for the owners and their guests unique even for Newport.
