Abstract
Description
In 1894 the noted architects Charles McKim and William Mead with their partner, the flamboyant Stanford White, began work on the Twomblys� 100 room mansion, the centerpiece of the park. It was completed in 1897. Its Georgian Revival design, inspired by the Christopher Wren wing of Hampton Court Palace, was sited to overlook the 150 acre park and nearby valley. The construction crew consisted primarily of Italian immigrant laborers.
