Rock Ledge, Tudor Revival mansion in Rowayton, Norwalk, US.

The Rock Ledge estate spans across 21 acres featuring granite structures and architectural elements influenced by English Elizabethan country residences.

James A. Farell, president of U.S. Steel from 1911 to 1932, commissioned the original mansion which burned in 1913 and was rebuilt by architects Tracy Walker and Leroy Ward.

The property demonstrates the architectural preferences of early 20th-century industrial leaders who sought to recreate European aristocratic residences in America.

The mansion, located at 40 Highland Avenue, now functions as the Rock Ledge Financial Center and houses Graham Capital Management since 2004.

During its ownership by Sperry Rand Corporation, the estate contributed to the development of UNIVAC, one of the first business computers in history.

Location: Norwalk

Inception: 1911

Architectural style: Tudor Revival architecture
