Barrow Mansion, 19th-century mansion in Jersey City, United States
Barrow Mansion is a 19th-century house in Jersey City with Greek Revival style architecture characterized by classical elements. The exterior features five Ionic columns across the front, while inside you find Italian marble details, tall ceilings, and multiple rooms designed for events.
The house was built between 1835 and 1837 by Cornelius Van Vorst during the early years of Jersey City's growth. In 1890 it was converted to a YMCA facility, which added recreational and athletic features to the property.
Today it serves as a home for theater productions and community gatherings where people experience live performances and participate in local events. The venue hosts groups and artistic activities that connect neighbors throughout the year.
The mansion is located on Wayne Street between Barrow Street and Jersey Avenue in a convenient part of Jersey City. It hosts many different events throughout the year, so checking ahead for timing and what is currently happening is helpful for planning your visit.
The basement contains one of the oldest bowling alleys in the United States, which was originally a shooting range. A local church converted this space in 1897 and used it for community activities.
