Fox Lair – LIDAR Surface Image

Foxlair was the sweeping wilderness estate owned by the legendary cosmetics magnate Richard Hudnut that is now forest preserve. I've explored the ruins many times, and was curious to see how much of the old stairways and ruins from the LIDAR digital terrain models, but unfortunately the resolution isn't quite high enough to get a clear outline of the old estate. But you can definitely still see the outline of the old road and how bigger the modern NY 8 is today.
