Edith Wharton designed and built The Mount in 1902, based on the principles outlined in her influential book, The Decoration of Houses (1897), co-authored with architect Ogden Codman, Jr. This classical revival house represents the only full expression we have of Wharton’s architectural interests. The Mount is the only U.S. monument to Edith Wharton. It is also one of the mere 5% of National Historic Landmarks dedicated to women.
