Paramount Country Club (founded 1948) is a private country club located in New City, NY, on the site of Mountain View Farm, the former home of Paramount Pictures founder Adolf Zukor. It features an 18-hole golf course designed by golf course architect A.W. Tillinghast. ==History== Paramount Country Club is located on land originally bought by Paramount Pictures founder Adolf Zukor in 1918, from Lawrence Abraham. Zukor expanded this estate, commissioning noted golf course architect A.W. Tillinghast to build an eighteen-hole golf course on the property, which opened in 1920.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tillinghast.net/cms/node/172 ) 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.golf.com/golf/courses_travel/coursefinder/course/0,28290,1432850,00.html )〕 Following the reorganization of Paramount Pictures in 1936, Zukor was not able to continue maintaining the Mountain View Farm estate as a private property, and so opened it for membership as the Mountain View Golf and Country Club. In 1948, he sold the property, which became the Dells Golf and Country Club and then Dellwood Country Club. In 2011 the club changed its name to Paramount Country Club, "a name which better reflects the rich history of the club." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dellwood Country Club - Club History )〕 The course was redesigned by William F. Mitchell in 1951 and Robert Trent Jones in 1956.〔 In 2013, the golf course was completely renovated by Jim Urbina. Paramount Country Club's Golf Course was voted as having the Best U.S. Private Renovation in the January 2014 issue of Golf Magazine. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paramount Country Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
