21 South Queen Street Lancaster, PA
It's shortly after dawn, and the front light still brightens the 1804 Montgomery House. This is one of Lancaster's most important Federal townhouses. It was built by architect Stephen Hills for attorney William Montgomery and his family. This architect also designed Harrisburg's first Capitol.
The Convention Center and Marriott wrap around this landmark building. The house's curved exterior wall is now showcased inside the Convention Center at the hotel lobby. The house shows off elaborate gouge-carved dormers and cornice, keystoned lintels, stone string courses, and Flemish-bond brickwork. Located at Penn Square Lancaster.
