still in existence? where on google earth?
Just found it, link provided above.
Looks like the Super's Cottage is just to the West on Cover Neck Rd
I don't believe that these pictures are of "Shoredge" in Cove Neck which was owned by Howard Caswell Smith. My mother-in-law was the daughter of the head butler and the family has pictures of the estate. This building is not the Shoredge that we are familiar with. Do you think there is a mistake or do you think there is another estate in Cove Neck, Oyster Bay, NY with the same name? Thank you.
The Howard C. Smith estate 'Shoredge' can be seen here:

145 Cove Neck Road -- I recognize the house. It's now being restored.
