A LOUISVILLE LANDMARK

Located in Crescent Hill, the Peterson-Dumesnil House was built in 1869 on 31 acres in the asymmetrical Italian villa style. The design has been attributed to Henry Whitestone, a well-known Louisville architect, whose other works include several major buildings on Main Street. Unusual for its time, the Peterson-Dumesnil House boasts 14 feet tall ceilings.
