This famous and historic twenty-acre waterfront estate, formerly
owned by Marjorie Merriweather Post and E. F. Hutton, was acquired by
Donald Trump in 1985. Designed by the renowned Viennese architect
Joseph Urban, Mar-a-Lago was designated a National Landmark by the
National Trust for Historic Preservation in 1972. It is the only property to
receive this distinction in the state of Florida. It was converted by Mr.
Trump in 1995 to a private ultra-luxury club that features a world-class
spa, renowned dining, tennis, pool, and private beach. The club also
functions as an international meeting place for world leaders in

as the best private club in the world.
