Wadsworth Hall, Lake Genova, Wisconsin, United States,
Built in 1906 for noted banker and philanthropist Norman Wait Harris — also known as N.W. Harris — who was the namesake of the predecessor firm to Harris Bank.
N.W. Harris named it Wadsworth Hall after his mother’s family. The mansion’s architect was the Shepley, Rutan & Coolidge firm, which among other structures designed the Cantigny mansion west of Wheaton for onetime Tribune co-owner Joseph Medill.
Glanworth Gardens has an original landscape plan by Frederick Law Olmsted.
