Say it ain't so...

PA Governor's Mansion
Read the short "passage" on the governor's residence and who designed it.

A little about the architect George Ewing

Wait?!? What clubs and organizations did he belong to?
  • Pennsylvania Society of Architects
  • American Institute of Architects (AIA)
  • Philadelphia Chapter, AIA
  • Swarthmore Zoning Board
Here's some info about the AIA -->

Union connection? Seems like it to me!
Since our governor seems to be anti-union, I proposed we help him pack up and ship out!
