Webb Institute
The Webb institute is one of a few universities that teaches nautical engineering and ship design. This is the place where the last wooden ship builders in New York City lived out their final days. Before it's nautical beginnings, the mansion and property was part of the Pratt Estate in Glen Cove. Another millionaire once called this mansion home too, Bruce Wayne. Batman Forever used the elegant estate as the exterior of Wayne's mansion. The rest of the magnificent estate can be seen at the Welwyn Preserve.
Perhaps once an underground ice house, it is now a laundry room with a tunnel to the main mansion, seen left.
