Phelps, Robert. "The Manufacturing Suburb of Los Angeles, Henry Huntington, Alfred Dolge, and the Building of Dolgeville, California, 1903-1910", in Southern California Quarterly, Vol. LXXX, No. 2 (Summer, 1998): 145-172.
Dolge's progressive ideas were probably anathema to Henry Huntington, one of "The Big Four" west coast railroad magnates. Dolge's financial woes in New York were complicated by his ownership position in the expensive-to-build Little Falls & Dolgeville Railroad.
The Dolge mansion is for sale: $470,000. Twenty-two bedrooms!

Thanks Terry. I just placed an order on Amazon for that.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fairly modest mansion when compared to today's standards.
