Garth Woodside Mansion - First Floor

First Floor

The main floor of the Garth Mansion holds approximately 90% of the original furnishings. It is very fortunate to still contain so many of the original museum quality pieces to grace the mansion. The first floor of the mansion is slightly elevated as the mansion was built halfway on a slight hill. The main entrance of the Garth Mansion, found on the Eastern side of the building, is located on a large wraparound veranda up a grand staircase.

Famous quotes containing the word floor:

    Because humans are not alone in exhibiting such behavior—bees stockpile royal jelly, birds feather their nests, mice shred paper—it’s possible that a pregnant woman who scrubs her house from floor to ceiling [just before her baby is born] is responding to a biological imperative . . . . Of course there are those who believe that . . . the burst of energy that propels a pregnant woman to clean her house is a perfectly natural response to their mother’s impending visit.
    Mary Arrigo (20th century)

    Cats walk the floor at midnight; that enemy of fog,
    The moon, wraps the bedpost in receding stillness....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
