It was constructed in 1879-1880 for John Price Crozer II.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the mansion is an excellent and largely intact example of Victorian architecture and Victorian estate life, and that it is the only surviving Crozer residence built primarily of wood. It also links the Crozer family's mill ownership and philanthropy to the development of Upland borough.","narrative":"Built of imported California redwood between October 1879 and June 1880 for John Price Crozer II, this three-story Queen Victorian mansion in Upland, Delaware County, stands on land purchased from William Maris. Its features include Victorian gables, a porch supported by redwood pillars, original tiled fireplaces, and interior woodwork in white oak, black walnut, mahogany and cherry. A rear study wing was added in 1907. Upland's Crozer family owned several mills, and the mansion is one of only two surviving Crozer residences from the original seven. The nomination treats it as a rare, largely intact example of Victorian domestic architecture and as evidence of the relationship between mill owners and workers in an early industrial community. The family's gifts to the borough, including the Upland Ball Park and the Athletic Association clubhouse, are also cited as reasons for its importance.","period_of_significance":"1879","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Queen Victorian","criteria":[],"status_note":"Operated as an apartment building by its latest owner, per the form; the form also notes decay and need for roof and chimney repair.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-haiku-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.1-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 17:11:32.677644-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_PA/80003486.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/80003486/b87cab5f73-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/80003486/b87cab5f73-1600.webp","licence":"Public domain","author":"User:Smallbones on English Wikipedia.","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CrozerII.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">User:Smallbones on English Wikipedia.</a>, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CrozerII.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71998430","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_P._Crozer_II_Mansion","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6251541"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/pennsylvania/delaware-county/crozer-john-p-ii-mansion-80003486/"}
