WARD W O'HARA AGRICULTURAL MUSEUM

AUBURN, NY

January 2, 2023: Delancey Partridge House, Seneca Falls, New York Dating to 1875, the stately Delancey Partridge House in Seneca Falls, New York is notable as a late-period example of Second Empire architecture, but even more so as what is generally agreed by cinema historians to be the inspiration for the "drafty old house" purchased and restored by George and Mary Bailey in the 1946 film <i>It's a Wonderful Life</i>.
