Very interesting 144 year old home in the process of being restored and protected. We took the general tour and it was informative and fun. Our tour guide Tricia was very passionate, knowledgeable and entertaining about the whole process and she really made the tour as fabulous as it was. Definitely would recommend to others. Only wish I could have afforded the whole house tour. So much to see!
Have done the general and the full house tour with Tricia Kelly and both experiences were wonderful. The history of the family, the business, and the mansion itself are delightful and I was particularly delighted by the connection to the Parliament of World's Religions event that created a bridge to a lot of Eastern philosophy and Paul Carus' work with D.T. Suzuki.nnThe house itself is a massive 7 stories and the general tour covers several of the main rooms while outlining the major members of the family and their history. The full tour goes throughout the entire house from the attic cupola to the basement floors and the more intricate anecdotes of the house itself. Particular favorites were the 100+ year old Cereus plant and the stunning detail in everything from the tables to the wallpaper and profusion of artifacts collected by the family.nnAn excellent destination spot and another shout out to the great presentation of Tricia and the work done by the staff in maintaining the building and archiving of all the history therein.
I'm biased because I work here. But it's a stunning home with a fascinating story. Please note: take the General Tour first.
Great tour. I pray they get the funding to finish the repairs.
Beautiful outdoor setting to listen to live music on Friday nights thru Sep. Only $5. Has Safe spacing circles. Bring your lawn chairs. Masks required when outside your circle. Very nice.
