This stunning Georgian townhouse was built in 1765 and purchased by Philadelphia's first mayor, Samuel Powel, in 1769. The house features an original staircase of Santo Domingo mahogany that rises elegantly from an impressive paneled and columned entrance hall. Many pieces of 18th-Century art, furniture, silver and porcelain can still be seen at the Powel residence, although a portion of its contents were sold to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Visitors can also enjoy a small, formal 18th-Century garden.
