Crews are demolishing a Gold Coast mansion that may have influenced F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby.”

The owners of Lands End, a 25-room colonial mansion that has loomed high above Long Island Sound since 1902, will replace it with five houses valued at $10 million each.

Fitzgerald enthusiasts believe that the author used it as a template for the home of Daisy Buchanan.

The property’s owner, David Brodsky, has said that the home was beyond repair when he and his father bought it for $17.5 million in 2004.
