Gibbons Mansion, Greek Revival mansion in Madison, United States.

The Gibbons Mansion displays classical columns and symmetrical design elements across its white-painted exterior, standing on the Drew University campus grounds.

William Gibbons initiated construction of the mansion in 1833, with completion in 1836, before Daniel Drew purchased it in 1867 for the Drew Theological Seminary.

The structure represents the finest example of Greek Revival architecture found north of the Mason-Dixon line, reflecting early American architectural preferences.

Currently operating as Mead Hall, the building houses administrative offices for Drew University and underwent substantial restoration following a 1989 fire.

The property maintains its original architectural features despite numerous changes in ownership and function throughout nearly two centuries of existence.
