Description: Once on the verge of demolition, this beautiful house was saved from the wrecker’s ball largely through the efforts of George Burke, the current resident of the historic property. The Seguine-Burke Mansion holds a special place in the roster of architecturally significant structures on Staten Island.

In landmarking the site, the Landmarks Preservation Commission noted that the this two and one-half story structure “has retained its original grandeur and, in the character and setting, is reminiscent of antebellum mansions of the Deep South.” The American Institute of Architects has noted the Southern-style grandeur of the buildings and its splendid setting.
