Gilded Philadelphia

Lynnewood Hall is a Neoclassical estate that is currently the fifteenth largest home in America. Situated in Elkins Park, PA, renowned Gilded Age architect Mr. Horace Trumbauer created some of the largest, most elaborate, and most important buildings ever made. Lynnewood Hall is one of them. Lynnewood is currently an endangered property, the history and importance of the estate make this unacceptable and necessary to preserve. “Gilded Philadelphia” is the proof. You will find a publication of my own experience in discovering Lynnewood and understanding its history, depth, and meaning within the spreads.
