It was designed by architect Horace Trumbauer for industrialist Peter A.B. Widener, between 1897 and 1900. Considered the largest surviving Gilded Age mansion in the Philadelphia area, it housed one of the most important private art collections of European masterpieces and decorative arts assembled by Widener and his younger son Joseph. Peter A.B. Widener died at Lynnewood Hall at the age of 80 in 1915. He was preceded in death by his eldest son and grandson, both of whom died when the Titanic sank in 1912. Built from Indiana limestone, the T-shaped Lynnewood Hall had 110 rooms and 55 bedrooms, in addition to a large art gallery, a ballroom, swimming pool, wine cellars, a farm and electrical power plant. Time magazine published an account of a lavish party held at Lynnwood Hall in 1932. Lynnewood suffered a general decline under the ownership of the Faith Theological Seminary, a religious group headed by Carl McIntire, which purchased it in 1952. During that ownership much interior detailing, such as mantels, walnut paneling, and landscape ornamentation was sold off in order to raise funds. Lynnwood Hall was added to the Preservation Alliance for the Greater Philadelphia’s 2003 list for most endangered historic properties and is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The seminary and property was eventually foreclosed upon the second-mortgagee, a one-time follower of McIntire. Lynnewood Hall currently is owned by the First Korean Church of New York. However, it is not in use by that church and remains vacant. The First Korean Church twice requested a variance from the zoning rules and regulations of the Class R-2 Residence District and was denied, which resulted in a lawsuit that upheld Cheltenham Townships denial of the request. There have been negotiations ongoing of new ownership and possible renovations to the estate. Parties had hoped to have a plan finalized by the end of 2011. In 2012 the court ruled the First Korean Church of New York did not qualify for tax exemption. The property is currently on the market for $17,500,000 as of January 2015.

ELk'.'.PA,I HISTORIC AMERICAN BUILDINGS SURVEY $- LYNNEWOOD HALL HABS No. PA-6146 Location: 920 Spring Avenue, Elkins Park, Montgomery Co., Pennsylvania. Significance: Lynnewood Hall, designed by famed Philadelphia architect Horace Trumbauer in 1898, survives as one of the finest country houses in the Philadelphia area. The 110-room mansion was built for street-car magnate P.A.B. Widener to house his growing family and art collection which would later become internationally renowned. 1 The vast scale and lavish interiors exemplify the remnants of an age when Philadelphia's self-made millionaire industrialists flourished and built their mansions in Cheltenham, apart from the Main Line's old society. Description: Lynnewood Hall is a two-story, seventeen-bay Classical Revival mansion that overlooks a terraced lawn to the south. The house is constructed of limestone and is raised one­ half story on a stone base that forms a terrace around the perimeter of the building. The mansion is a "T" plan with the front facade forming the cross arm of the "T". Enclosed semi­ circular loggias extend from the east and west ends of the cross arm and a three-story wing forms the leg of the 'T' to the north. The most imposing exterior feature is the full-height, five-bay Corinthian portico with a stone staircase and a monumental pediment.

    BOOK REVIEWS Philadelphia Georgian: The City House of Samuel Powel and Some of Its Eighteenth-Century Neighbors. By GEORGE B. TATUM. (Middletown, Conn.: Wesleyan University Press, 1976. xvii, 187 p. Illustrations, bibliography, index. #17.50 hard cover; #4.95 paperback.) George B. Taturn's Philadelphia Georgian is the type of comprehensive study every historic house deserves. Few American buildings are as well documented or as carefully researched as the fine brick house completed in 1766 for Charles Stedman and later owned and embellished by the "patriot mayor," Samuel Powel. Thus, the publication of this volume is a significant event. Mr. Tatum, H. Rodney Sharp Professor of Art History at the University of Delaware, places his description of the Powel House within a context of social and architectural history that underscores the importance of the building itself. While the study concentrates on the Powel House, background information is provided by a survey of Georgian architecture in America as expressed in Philadelphia and its environs. Superb photographs by Cortlandt van Dyke Hubbard illustrate the architectural heritage of the city and enable the reader to compare the Powel House with other remaining eighteenth-century buildings. Samuel Powel epitomized the colonial gentleman. Rich, well-educated, an outstanding citizen, he married Elizabeth Willing in 1769, and their house at 244 South Third Street formed the setting for the sophisticated life they led until his death in 1793. Mrs. Powel sold the house in 1798 to William Bingham; it passed through successive owners in the nineteenth century, but remained intact until 1917, when a paneled room was sold to the Metropolitan Museum of Art for installation in the American Wing.
