ITHACA, NY (607NewsNow) – The deed to the Cornell president’s mansion is changing hands.
The historic Robin Hill home in Cayuga Heights has reportedly been sold to an alumnus for nearly $2.8 million.

According to the Cornell Daily Sun, the President’s Mansion will now generate nearly $70,000 in annual property taxes.
