Renovating Usa’s Biggest Abandoned Mansion Lynnewood Hall

Lynnewood Hall, once the largest abandoned mansion in the United States, is now beginning a new chapter, ready to impact the lives of everyone who comes through its doors.

This is a follow-up documentary to the first one we posted two years ago. Since then, the Preservation Foundation has been able to purchase the property and initiated crucial cleanup and renovation efforts in key areas of the property. We immediately planned to make a second part to document the progress and future restoration plans, delving deeper into the Preservation Foundation's growth and history. We’ll explore areas never before seen or documented, rooms that have already been worked on, and go more in-depth on the technological innovations that made Lynnewood Hall such a marvel of its time.
Edward will give a brief sum-up of the history of this historic landmark. Still, we encourage you to watch our first documentary before diving into this one, to learn all about Lynnewood Hall and fully appreciate the changes that have unfolded over the past two years.
