Jenckes Mansion

The Jenckes Mansion, located in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, is a historic three-story brick double house built in 1828 by the Jenckes family, prominent mill owners in the area. This unique structure showcases late Federal architectural style and features a rare ballroom in its attic, which was later converted into residential spaces around 1900. Although the designer remains unknown, it is believed to resemble the work of architect John Holden Greene. The mansion was recognized for its historical significance and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, making it an intriguing site for tourists and researchers interested in early American architecture and local history.
