They sound really interesting to me.
The Mansion is about the Stilson Hutchins house that was on Governor's Island. Built in 1885, Hutchins was the founder of the Washington Post and hosted many dignitaries over the years. The house fell into disrepair and was "haunted" in the '30s, finally burning in 1935.

The remains of the foundation are still in the woods, more toward the center of the island.
