Woodford Mansion (1756). “In 1756-58 William Coleman, a Philadelphia merchant and close friend of Benjamin Franklin, built this elegant country home. Woodford — a National Historic Landmark — is one of the most handsome survivors of the early “summer retreats” that were built along the Schuylkill River during the eighteenth and early nineteenth century.” [source: woodfordmansion.org] Located in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. #architecturaltourist #thearchitecturaltourist #architecture #architektur #architecturedesign #architektura #architectures #arquitetura #arquitectura #architecturephotography #travelphotography #loveoldhouses #historicdistrict #historicproperties #lovearchitecture #traditionalarchitecture #classicarchitecture #beautifulhouse #colonialhouse #colonial #colonialamerica #georgian #georgianarchitecture #americanhistory #fairmountpark #philadelphia #philly #philadelphiahistory #woodfordmansion #woodford @woodfordmansion
