Wilbur House is a historic home located on Main street in Fairport in Monroe County, New York. It is a Second Empire–style structure built about 1873 that features a two-bay, 2-story tower that projects from the northeast corner of the 1 1⁄2-story front section. The tower, as well as the rest of the front section, is covered by a decorative fish scale and octagonal slate mansard roof. Also on the property is a contributing carriage house.
Hiram P. Wilbur was the superintendent (some say the first such) of the westernmost section of the Erie Canal, and also the postmaster for the town of Perinton.[3] The home he built in 1873 later served as a boarding school before reverting to a private residence. The house is currently 3,792 square feet (352.3 m2) with five bedrooms. Many of the historic details have been retained, including speaking tubes for intra-house communication.

[...] Da gik de højeste til Domstole,
hver hellig Gud, og paa det grunded:
Nat og Næde Navn blev givet,
Navn fik Morgen og Midjedag,
Unden og Aften, Aar at tælle. [...]
(Translation:
[...] Then sought the gods | their assembly-seats,
The holy ones, | and council held;
Names then gave they | to noon and twilight,
Morning they named, | and the waning moon,
Night and evening, | the years to number [...])

Prince Asakanomiya Yasuhiko (朝香宮鳩彦 1887-1981), a son-in-law of Emperor Meiji, was a general of the Japanese Imperial Army. His residence was built in 1933 on the site of a former Edo residence of the Matsudaira (松平) family that had their Han (藩 domain) in Takamatsu in the Shikoku island.
He studied in France and became fascinated with the French culture. He hired Henri Rapin, a French art déco artist, to design the interior.
Asakanomiya narrowly avoided being named a war criminal, but was purged from holding any political and public offices after the WW II by the order of GHQ of the US-led occupation forces. His imperial family status was also abolished.
The mansion occupying a primary location in the Yamanote terrace was seized by the government and sold to the Seibu Group in 1950. It had been used as a guesthouse of the Ikebukuro-based railways, retail and hotel group until 1975.
Seibu also purchased his villa in Karuizawa, a famous hill station in the Nagano prefecture, and converted it to Karuizawa Prince Hotel.
Seibu tried to built another Prince Hotel in Prince Asakanomiya's residence, but gave it up finally due to a strong local opposition. Seibu sold the property to the Tokyo prefecture in 1981, and the prefecture converted it to the Metropolitan Teien Art Museum (都立庭園美術館) as it is today.
