October 17th, 2026 marked the 100th anniversary of the magnificent 3rd church of historic St Agnes in West Chester Pa. Founded in 1793, the present church was designed by Henry Dagit and Sons with stained glass by Paula Balano and marble work by the Joseph Sibbel Studio. Every detail was designed by the architect and created with the best craftsmanship of the day. After a year long restoration, it shows off a transcendent glow. Drop in when in town. Typically open till 3pm. #westchesterpa #saintagneswestchester ##churcharchitecture #stonearchitecture by @findingyoursenseofplace

Hunting Hill Mansion, located in Ridley Creek State Park in Media, Pennsylvania, is a magnificent 1915 English Tudor-style country manor designed by Wilson Eyre! Originally constructed around a 1789 stone farmhouse by the Jeffords family, its distinct gray stone facade serves as the core architectural inspiration for buildings throughout the entire 2,600-acre park. One of my favorite buildings in this region! #ridleycreekstatepark #stonearchitecture #wilsoneyre #pennsylvania by @findingyoursenseofplace
