Notable Houses

The Victoria Mansion, or Morse-Libby Mansion, was completed in 1860 for Ruggles Sylvester Morse in the Italianate style.  It is remarkably complete, with more than 90% of the original contents, and is very little altered from the original Henry Austin design.  Austin also designed many buildings at Yale, but the Victoria Mansion is generally regarded as his masterpiece.
