Ornate stairway

You just don't see the attention to detail in today's home designs that you would have witnessed in gilded-age mansions like Lynnewood Hall in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania. Lynnewood Hall, with 110 rooms, 55 bedrooms, and 100,000 square feet, is the second largest Gilded Age mansion left in the U.S. and a magnificent example of architecture by Architect Horace Trumbauer. For the fascinating history of the home known as the "American Versailles", see the Lynnewood Hall Preservation Foundation's website at LynnewoodHallPreservation.org/history, where you can become a Patreon supporter and help the restoration efforts.
