Phineas Chapman Lounsbury House
Phineas Chapman Lounsbury House, Classical Revival mansion in Ridgefield, Connecticut.
The wooden two-story Lounsbury House features symmetrical design elements, grand columns, and traditional architectural details throughout its expansive interior and exterior spaces.
Built in 1895 by architect Charles Northrop, the house replicates the Connecticut State Building from the 1893 Columbian Exposition at the request of Governor Lounsbury.
The property reflects the influence of late 19th-century world exhibitions on American residential architecture through its adoption of Classical Revival design principles.
Located at 316 Main Street, the house sits on a one-acre lot and functions as a venue for weddings, corporate meetings, and community gatherings.
The house earned National Register of Historic Places status in 1975 and remains the only Connecticut gubernatorial residence modeled after a World Fair building.
