Versace was gunned down on the front steps of the building on July 15, 1997 while on his usual walk home from a nearby cafe. The gunman, Andrew Cunanan, was found dead days later after an extensive manhunt.
Casa Casuarina was built in 1930 by Alden Freeman, son of Joel Freeman, the treasurer of the Standard Oil Trust, according to the hotel's website. Versace became interested in the property in 1992 while on vacation with his family.
