out in The Mansion's glorious gardens, or inside The Mansion if the
weather is unkind.

The Duke Mansion, at 400 Hermitage Road in the Myers Park area of
Charlotte, is a non-profit bed-and-breakfast inn and meeting place.
Built in 1915, The Mansion is listed on the National Register of
Historic Places. In 1919, it was purchased by James B. "Buck" Duke and
tripled to its current size of 32,000 square feet. Many of Duke's
lasting legacies, including Duke Power Company, Duke University and
The Duke Endowment, originated at The Duke Mansion. To find out more
