1171 Main Street, St. Johnsbury, Vermont USA • The St. Johnsbury Athenæum is a private, nonprofit public library and art gallery located in St. Johnsbury, Vermont. The Athenæum fills two roles: it serves the people of St. Johnsbury by enriching their lives, and it stands as a regional and national treasure - a monument to the nineteenth-century belief in learning. The Athenæum is a legacy of the Fairbanks Family of St. Johnsbury, inventors and manufacturers of the world's first platform scale, who gave the Athenæum to the trustees of the institution in 1871. With his wealth Horace Fairbanks created a center of culture for the people of his town - a true "athenaeum." – From the Athenæum's website.
The Athenæum's construction (1868-1873), its collection of American landscape paintings and books, its original role as a public library and free art gallery, and the industrial origins of the fortune that provided it, all contribute to the national significance of the building. The art collection contains a number of Hudson River School paintings. This unaltered building retains a strong, elegant Victorian flavor of the 19th century. – From the National Historic Landmark Statement of Significance.

National Historic Landmarks are nationally significant historic places designated by the Secretary of the Interior because they possess exceptional value or quality in illustrating or interpreting the heritage of the United States. Today, fewer than 2,500 historic places bear this national distinction, [and only 17 in Vermont ]. Working with citizens throughout the nation, the National Historic Landmarks Program draws upon the expertise of National Park Service staff who work to nominate new landmarks and provide assistance to existing landmarks.
National Historic Landmarks are exceptional places. They form a common bond between all Americans. While there are many historic places across the nation, only a small number have meaning to all Americans--these we call our National Historic Landmarks. – from the National Park Service.

Glenside, Pennsylvania USA • Constructed in 1893, this American "castle" typifies the architectural complexes built for families of great wealth at the turn of the century, symbolizing their social aspirations. This was the first major commission of Horace Trumbauer (1869 -1938), a successful architect of European-revival styles; today it is Arcadia University (formerly known as Beaver College.) – From the NPS Statement of Significance.
Grey Towers Castle was built in the late 1890’s by architect Horace Trumbauer, whose firm helped build the Philadelphia Museum of Art, for sugar millionaire William Welsh Harrison. The castle was designed to resemble Alnwick Castle in England and was built to replace Harrison’s Rosedale Hall home which burned to the ground on the same site in 1893. The estate was purchased by Arcadia College in 1929 and today serves as a dormitory as well as home to the office of the president and the Offices of Admissions, Enrollment Management, and Financial Aid. Harrison was reportedly a philanderer and had secret passageways built into the castle to conduct his affairs with his mistresses including many female servants and maids. – From 19 Beautiful Famous Castles in Pennsylvania, by Joe Dorish.
☞ On February 14, 1980, the National Park Service added this structure, also known as the William Welsh Harrison House, to the National Register of Historic Places (#80003578).
☞ On February 4, 1985, the National Park Service designated this structure a National Historic Landmark (also, #80003578).
