In the local Palm Beach press, many times over the years it's been related that Harry Thaw (Stanford White's killer) saw Mar-a-Lago for the first time and said, "My god, I shot the wrong architect."
The statement has also been attributed to Addison Mizner, a well-known Palm Beach architect... 2/2

BTW, the “15-year car loan“ has been a thing in the past half-century, as home equity lines of credit have been known to cover things like car purchases and stretch payments way out (esp. in the 1980s and 1990s), albeit ill-advisedly.

And let’s consult the USDA’s helpful online archive for more on the excellent 1913 roads:
“At the beginning of the year 1913, 90 per cent, or approximately 2,000,000 miles, of the roads in this country were earth. The repair and proper maintenance of earth roads are therefore of great importance.”
