| - Waldheim was the Scarborough, New York residence of James Speyer, a New York banker and public and financial figure. The estate was located on a hill between the Ossining and Scarborough train stations. The estate's name means "Forest Home" and its lands occupied a large tract of the property between Scarborough Road and Albany Post Road. Today, the estate's red-brick wall is still visible on the borders of Scarborough and Holbrook roads going as far south as where the entrance is to Philips Laboratories. By 1901, the Waldheim estate covered approximately 100 acres that held large meadows, a small lake, orchards, gardens of vegetables and flowers, and portions of woods that were left undisturbed. The decorative elements of the gardens of the house were not very elaborate by 1901, consisting only of a hedge that encircled the garden on the west side of the house that faced the Hudson, which had as a centerpiece a beautiful fountain of bronze which was in a basin cut from a single piece of red marble.
