Do you love checking out basements, kitchens, and other out of the way rooms? Our behind-the-scenes tour takes you past the beautiful facade and explores how the house ran when the Cranes were in residence. You’ll learn how a plumbing magnate incorporated the latest technology of the era into his summer home, including electric wind indicators and a property-wide telephone system. You’ll also see how the Trustees have improved efficiency and brought formerly dormant technology back to life.
