Murry Guggenheim House, Beaux-Arts mansion in West Long Branch, United States.

The Murry Guggenheim House features a white stucco exterior with curved side wings, Palladian arcades, and a grand corridor adorned with Ionic columns.

Architects Carrère and Hastings, known for designing the New York Public Library, completed this summer residence for Murry and Leonie Guggenheim in 1905.

The mansion draws architectural inspiration from the Grand Trianon in Versailles, incorporating classical French design elements throughout its structure.

The property transformed into the Murry and Leonie Guggenheim Memorial Library at Monmouth University in 1961, with expansions in 1967 and 2003.

The original Cedar Avenue gates, featuring intricate wrought iron work with decorative MG initials, now mark the entrance to Monmouth University north campus.
