Rockland Mansion
Fairmount Park

Constructed around 1810, a rare example of a Federal period villa, by George Thomson, a dry goods merchant.

With most of its 1801 features intact, Rockland Mansion is a fine Philadelphia Federal style villa. Features include a graceful elliptical staircase and four sliding sash windows that connect the parlor with the back porch.
