Whitemarsh Hall, Mansion in Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania, US
Whitemarsh Hall featured six stories across 100,000 square feet, with three levels underground and a high balustrade concealing the top floor.
Built in 1921 for investment banker Edward Stotesbury, the mansion served as a storage facility for Metropolitan Museum artworks during World War II.
The mansion contained a collection of European 18th-century portraits, antiques from England and France, and furnishings created by Sir Charles Allom.
The estate required 140 staff members for maintenance and operations, including 70 gardeners for the grounds and 40 indoor personnel.
