In November 1910 six men holding a quarter of the world's wealth boarded a private rail car using first names only, told the papers they were duck hunting, and spent a week on Jekyll Island drafting what became the Federal Reserve. The club they met at counted Morgans, Rockefellers and Vanderbilts as members and is now a hotel where anyone can book the rooms they plotted in.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
