Ludlow Manor

As you read this, I'm visiting the old Olmsted home in Ludlow, Pennsylvania.
by Charlie Leck

Anne's grandfather built Olmsted Manor after his astonishing success in the business world. He and his wife, Chubby, lived here together before there was wealth and decided they wanted this to always be home. So, though it dwarfs the village, George W ordered it built. Grandpappy also had an astonishing place on Park Avenue in Manhattan, but Ludlow was always considered home.

Mr. Olmsted's grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren are gathering here now for a family reunion.

For now, I'll allow this picture tour of Olmsted Manor to speak for me!
