THE FITCH STREET MANSION - AMENITIES 726 FITCH STREET
This impressive home dominates the 700 block of Fitch Street, with its Neo-Classical Revival style, molded frieze dentils, molded lintels and Palladian window above the front entrance. The entry porch is flanked by two-story columns, and the porch and stairs are solid white marble. The handsome craftsmanship of this home is featured in every detail from the stunning central staircase to the molding surrounding the doors and windows.
This home was built for Frank Passalacqua, who purchased the land in 1904, and built the home in 1914. Originally the property encompassed the land stretching from the existing site north to Powell Street and was the home of Fitch Mountain Winery. The architect, Brainerd Jones, was known to have said "this house was built to last 300 years" ... and we believe he is right.
