This is the E.W. Marland Mansion located in Ponca City, OK. The home was built from 1925 to 1928 by Oklahoma oilman/governor E.W. Marland. I was born and raised in Oklahoma, but did not visit this amazing home until recently. When I walked through its corridors, I was floored by its extravagance and attention to detail. I never imagined a home this grand existed within the borders of our state. From a ballroom ceiling and chandeliers (that today would cost an estimated $2 million to recreate) to hidden rooms and passageways, it is incredible. The home contains limitless elements of unfathomable wealth that really had my imagination churning during my visit.
been there and actually did a little restoration project there
