The Morris-Jumel Mansion is the oldest house in Manhattan. Being in its vicinity is a step back into colonial times. It is a place of beauty that is of great importance in the history of American culture and architecture.

  • you sound so cute!

  • I went to Jumel Mansion in 1972 when I was in the 5th grade. brought back memories.

  • It's mind-boggling that most New Yorkers don't even know of this place and its historical significance.

  • Nice vid! It's very interesting to see that this hose architecture looks different from houses or buildings from 18th or 19th century in Peru, at least for the little I know. Here i know that some buildings are Spanish mainly. Thanks God in my country we still preserve lots of this old buildings. Well, nice vid, well explained, and I could understand it almost clearly!! :) 

  • Well described and perfectly done thank you!!
