Nagirroc

Nagirroc was a historic country estate in Lake County, Ohio, that existed from 1891 to 1924. It was the summer residence of Cleveland, Ohio, shipping, mining, and steel manufacturing magnate James C. Corrigan. The original acreage that made up Nagirroc (which is "Corrigan" spelled backwards) was purchased in 1891, and a large home built there. After Corrigan's death in 1908, the estate passed to his son, James W. Corrigan. The son greatly expanded the estate, and turned it into a farm and horticultural showcase. The estate was sold in 1924, and most of it turned into a golf course.
