In 1873, wealthy railroad magnate, Jacob A. Henry built his imposing mansion on Eastern Avenue, Joliet, Illinois, which was then referred to as "Silk Stocking Row." He employed a master craftsman from Germany along with three cabinet- makers to fashion the elaborate carved interior. It took three years to complete and has 16,800 square feet consisting of over 40 rooms.
