The Grants turned White Haven over to William Henry Vanderbilt in 1881, to satisfy a loan Vanderbilt gave Grant after one of the latter's financial partners absconded with embezzled investment funds. A portion of the plantation was later purchased by Adolphus Busch, where he developed his Grant's Farm property. Grant's Farm is 1,000 feet from the entrance to White Haven.
