Charles K. Eagle

Charles K. Eagle (d. September 2, 1928) was an American silk merchant who owned one of New York City's largest silk-manufacturing firms in the early 20th century.

[3] The Real Estate Record and Builders' Guide stated on May 13, 1911, that the lot at the corner of Park Avenue and 21st Street, formerly occupied by the New Amsterdam Hotel, had been purchased by "J. H. & C. K. Eagle, one of the largest of the city's silk manufacturing firms".

[5] Four years later, the firm built a silk mill factory on Chestnut Street in Kulpmont, Pennsylvania, at a cost of $1.5 million.

Upon the death of John in 1943, The New York Times reported that he retired in 1925, and moved to Pasadena, California,[3] living in the 1920-built Marshallia mansion (now Strub Hall, part of Mayfield Senior School) on Grand Avenue,[10] so it is likely Charles continued on alone for last three years of his life.

"[16][15] As such, the terrace featured flower beds, Japanese pines, a fountain with speckled trout, birdhouses and pheasants and squirrels.
